Twenty seven S. aureus isolates were obtained from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients at a tertiary care hospital in Brazil. Nineteen (70.4%) were methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) and eight (29.6%) methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Of the MRSA isolates, four had SCCmec type III and four had SCCmec type IV. PVL genes were not detected in any of the MSSA or MRSA isolates. New studies are necessary to evaluate the exact impact of these different MRSA clones in CF patients.
从巴西一家三级保健医院的囊性纤维化 (CF) 患者中分离出 27 株金黄色葡萄球菌。19 株（70.4%）为耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MSSA），8 株（29.6%）为耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）。MRSA 分离株中，4 株为 SCCmec 型 III，4 株为 SCCmec 型 IV。在任何 MSSA 或 MRSA 分离株中均未检测到 PVL 基因。需要开展新的研究来评估这些不同的 MRSA 克隆在 CF 患者中的确切影响。
