Multiresistant microorganism infection often can produce a life-threatening situation. We report two cases in which fecal microbiota transplantation used for the treatment of recurrent infection were effective in eradicating colonization by carbapenemase-producing . The presented cases illustrate the potential benefit of fecal microbiota transplantation in resolution of asymptomatic carrier states of multiresistant microorganisms, suggesting the need for further investigations with a view to their applicability in this area.
多重耐药微生物感染往往会导致危及生命的情况。我们报告了两例使用粪便微生物群移植治疗复发性感染的病例,这些治疗在根除产碳青霉烯酶菌的定植方面是有效的。所展示的病例说明了粪便微生物群移植在解决多重耐药微生物无症状携带状态方面的潜在益处,这表明有必要进一步研究其在该领域的适用性。
