We report the successful treatment with linezolid of a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) endocarditis in a patient with a severe allergic reaction to glycopeptides. Linezolid is a drug with well-recognised activity against S. aureus and proved to be efficacious even in the unusual site of heart valves. This drug could be a good therapeutic choice when glycopeptides treatment is not feasible.
我们报告了1例对糖肽类药物严重过敏的耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)心内膜炎患者使用利奈唑胺成功治疗的病例。利奈唑胺是一种对金黄色葡萄球菌具有公认活性的药物,事实证明即使在心脏瓣膜这一特殊部位也有效。当糖肽类药物治疗不可行时,这种药物可能是一个很好的治疗选择。
