Klebsiella Pneumoniaeoxa-48 in a Urology Patient: Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an isolate of Klebsiella pneumoniae OXA-48 isolated in a 68-year-old man who underwent radical prostatectomy due to prostate cancer. The antibiotic susceptibility testing to a wide range of antibiotics was performed by disk diffusion method and determination of minimal inhibitory concentrations. The isolate was classified as multidrug-resistant. It showed intermediate susceptibility to imipenem and meropenem, resistance to ertapenem, and sensitivity only to colistin, amikacin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. The isolate was positive for ESBLs, negative for AmpC. Polymerase chain reaction and sequencing revealed bla(OXA-48)', bla(CTX-M-15) and bla(SHV-11). The plasmid encoding OXA-48 ß-lactamase did not belong to any known PCR-based replicon typing. According to genotyping, the isolate belonged to ST37.

Within-Host and Population Transmission of blaOXA-48 in K. pneumoniae and E. coli
During a large hospital outbreak of OXA-48 producing bacteria, most K. pneumoniaeOXA-48 isolates were phenotypically resistant to meropenem or imipenem, whereas most E. coliOXA-48 isolates were phenotypically susceptible to these antibiotics. In the absence of molecular gene-detection E. coliOXA-48 could remain undetected, facilitating cross-transmission and horizontal gene transfer of blaOXA-4...

متن کاملCoincidental Hydatid Cyst of Skin and Kidney: A Very Rare Case Report
Human echinococcosis remains a complex problem that affects several organs. Hydatid disease mainly (85%) affects liver as well as lung, and 10% the rest of the body. Renal involvement is about 2% while skin hydatidosis is nearly 1%. Coincidental involvement of kidney and skin is very rare. We report a 51 year-old female patient with renal and skin (chest wall) hydatid lesions that were excis...
