Antimicrobial resistance in Gram-negative bacteria, particularly Enterobacteriaceae, has become a leading cause of morbidity and mortality and a serious public health concern. Gram-negative bacteria carrying extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) enzymes now represent a significant proportion of all bacteria isolated from different countries worldwide. Furthermore, the increasing number of isolates carrying carbapenemases in recent years includes multidrug-resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and pandrug-resistant (PDR) bacteria. Here, we describe what, to our knowledge, is the first case of a patient with a prosthetic joint infection from carbapenemase-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) successfully treated with ceftazidime-avibactam in Italy.

Abstract. We describe the case of an HIV-infected man who developed twice a Helicobacter cinaedi prosthetic joint infection. In our knowledge, it is the first case to date. Furthermore, it illustrates the fact that this bacterium is difficult to isolate and that recurrences can occur even after apparently successful treatment.

A case of osteomyelitis in an infant following a burn injury sustained in Pakistan caused by a GES-13-producingPseudomonas aeruginosa(the first reported in Canada) and an OXA-48 producingKlebsiella pneumoniaeis described. The present case serves to highlight the importance of international travel as a risk factor for infection with carbapenemase-producing bacteria and the challenges in the laboratory detection of these organisms.

Device Infection

We report what is to the best of our knowledge the first case of persistent human listeriosis. A housewife underwent excision of a leiomyosarcoma and implantation of a prosthetic knee device. Infection of the device with Listeria monocytogenes occurred and persisted for 2 years. Despite having an allergy to ampicillin, the patient was cured solely by antibiotics and without surgery.
