We report a case of management failure of male urethritis syndrome due to macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma genitalium in South Africa. We detected mutations in 23S rRNA and one of the quinolone resistance-determining regions. This report confirms that drug-resistant M. genitalium infection can undermine the effectiveness of syndromic management in Africa.
我们报告了南非一例因对大环内酯类耐药的生殖支原体导致男性尿道炎综合征治疗失败的病例。我们检测到23S核糖体RNA及一个喹诺酮耐药决定区发生了突变。本报告证实,耐药的生殖支原体感染会削弱非洲综合征管理的有效性。
