A Syrian asylum seeker with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) developed a bronchopleural fistula after pneumonectomy. Although screening tests were negative on admission, carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae were cultured after a few months of TB treatment. Prevalence of multidrug-resistant organisms is reported to be increased in asylum seekers compared with the general Dutch population. Arduous conditions during transit and interrupted health care delivery in our patient led to multiple-resistant microorganisms that complicated treatment.
一名患有耐多药结核病(TB)的叙利亚寻求庇护者在肺切除术后发生支气管胸膜瘘。尽管入院时的筛查检测结果为阴性,但在接受 TB 治疗数月后培养出了产碳青霉烯酶肠杆菌科细菌。与一般荷兰人群相比,报告称寻求庇护者中多药耐药生物的患病率有所增加。在我们的患者中,转运期间的艰苦条件和医疗服务的中断导致了多种耐药微生物的产生,使治疗变得复杂。
