| ABSTRACT |
|
Infections due to multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii have become a challenging problem in intensive care units. Tigecycline is a derivative of minocyline, and has provided new hope for the treatment of multidrug-resistant A. baumannii infections. Because isolates showing reduced susceptibility to minocycline or tigecycline have emerged in many countries, empirical combination therapy has become common practice to treat patients infected with extreme drug-resistant A. baumannii.
Herein we report a case of extreme drug-resistant A.
baumannii infection successfully treated with tigecycline and amikacin. |
| Key Words:
acinetobacter; amikacin; tigecycline; ventilator-associated pneumonia |
