Abstract:
:The mechanism(s) of resistance or decreased susceptibility to cefepime (FEP) and/or imipenem (IMP) in three consecutive isolates of Enterobacter aerogenes (Ea1, Ea2 and Ea3) cultured from bronchial aspirates of the same patient after treatment with ceftriaxone and FEP were studied. Identification was performed with the VITEK 2 system. All three isolates showed identical pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns and were resistant (minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs)) to cefoxitin (MIC, >1024 mg/L), cefotaxime (CTX; MIC, 32-128 mg/L) and ceftazidime (CAZ; MIC, 32-128 mg/L) but susceptible to meropenem (MIC,
