VEB-1 in Achromobacter xylosoxidans from Cystic Fibrosis Patient, France
A (formerly Alcaligenes) xylosoxidans is a newly emerging microorganism isolated with increased frequency from the lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), but information about its clinical relevance is limited (1). A. xylosoxidans is innately resistant to many antimicrobial drugs (2), except piperacillin, piperacillintazobactam, and imipenem, and moderately susceptible to ceftazidime (45%...
متن کاملPandoraea pulmonicola chronic colonization in a cystic fibrosis patient, France
Pandoraea are considered emerging multidrug resistant pathogens in the context of cystic fibrosis. We report herein for the first time the case of a 30-year-old woman with cystic fibrosis, living in France, who was chronically infected with Pandoraea pulmonicola and who died of Pseudomonas aeruginosa sepsis 3 weeks after bilateral lung transplantation.
متن کاملOutbreak of Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum Infection in Cystic Fibrosis Patients, France
An increasing body of evidence indicates that nondiphtheria corynebacteria may be responsible for respiratory tract infections. We report an outbreak of Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum infection in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). To identify 18 C. pseudodiphtheriticum strains isolated from 13 French children with CF, we used molecular methods (partial rpoB gene sequencing) and matrix-a...
متن کاملPrevalence of Mycobacterium lentiflavum in cystic fibrosis patients, France
BACKGROUND Mycobacterium lentiflavum is rarely isolated in respiratory tract samples from cystic fibrosis patients. We herein describe an unusually high prevalence of M. lentiflavum in such patients. METHODS M. lentiflavum, isolated from the respiratory tract of cystic fibrosis patients, was identified using both rpoB partial sequencing and detected directly in the sputum by using real-time P...
متن کاملDiabetic myonecrosis in a cystic fibrosis patient.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) related diabetes is an increasingly common comorbidity in CF patients, with scarce data on end-stage complications in the CF population. We report the case of a 32-year-old with poorly controlled diabetes presenting with sub-acute leg pain and focal quadriceps tenderness. Neuromuscular testing and extensive workup revealed diabetic myonecrosis. To our knowledge, this is the...
