Community-acquired necrotizing pneumonia caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST30-SCCmecIVc-spat019-PVL positive in San Antonio de Areco, Argentina.

Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is the first cause of skin and soft tissue infections, but can also produce severe diseases such as bacteremia, osteomyelitis and necrotizing pneumonia. Some S. aureus lineages have been described in cases of necrotizing pneumonia worldwide, usually in young, previously healthy patients. In this work, we describe a fatal case of nec...

Pneumonia and New Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Clone

Necrotizing pneumonia caused by Staphylococcus aureus strains carrying the Panton-Valentin leukocidin gene is a newly described disease entity. We report a new fatal case of necrotizing pneumonia. An S. aureus strain with an agr1 allele and of a new sequence type 377 was recovered, representing a new, emerging, community-acquired methicillin-resistant clone.

Community-acquired necrotizing pneumonia due to methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus secreting Panton-Valentine leukocidin: a review of case reports

BACKGROUND Community-acquired necrotizing pneumonia caused by Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-secreting Staphylococcus aureus is a highly lethal infection that mainly affects healthy children and young adults. Both methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) may carry the PVL-phage, but the majority of publications relate to community-associated methicill...

Complete Genome Sequence of a Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Hypervirulent Strain, USA300-C2406, Isolated from a Patient with a Lethal Case of Necrotizing Pneumonia

USA300 is a predominant community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain causing significant morbidity and mortality. We present here the full annotated genome of a USA300 hypervirulent clinical strain, USA300-C2406, isolated from a patient with a lethal case of necrotizing pneumonia, to gain a better understanding of USA300 hypervirulence.

Necrotizing pneumonia in the community.

A 62-year-old man presented with general fatigue. He was diagnosed with septic shock and severe pneumonia. The sputum at admission yielded methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) strain and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strain. Despite antibiotic treatment, he did not improve. A chest computed tomography (CT) revealed multilobar cavity lesions. Only MRSA strain was confirmed...

[Necrotizing pneumonia due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus].

The aim of this study was to describe a case of necrotizing pneumonia caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The sample was isolated from a blood culture collected less than 48 hours after hospital admission. The patient had been healthy until the infectious process started. The isolate had the mecA gene with "staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec" (SCCmec) type IVa. The possib...
