The presence of Kerstersia gyiorum in lower leg wounds has been reported in case studies from several countries.
This study evaluated the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of K gyiorum isolated from a chronic wound.
An 85-year-old woman with chronic venous insufficiency presented to an intermediate care unit in Niteroi City, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with an instep chronic wound of 14 cm² with wound duration of 6 months. K gyiorum was identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight, confirmed by 16S rRNA partial sequence analysis, and classified as resistant for ciprofloxacin by reagent strips(minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] = 32 µg/mL) and the broth macrodilution method (MIC = 8 µg/mL). Intermediate resistance for ciprofloxacin was verified by microscan (MIC = 2 µg/mL).
The authors identified the first, to their knowledge, lower leg wound with K gyiorum in Brazil and verified that it was ciprofloxacin resistant.
从多个国家的病例研究中报告了小腿伤口中存在 Kerstersia gyiorum。
本研究评估了从慢性伤口分离出的 K gyiorum 的抗菌药物敏感性谱。
一位 85 岁的女性因慢性静脉功能不全,在巴西里约热内卢尼泰罗伊市的一个中级护理病房就诊,她的脚背慢性伤口为 14cm²,伤口持续时间为 6 个月。通过基质辅助激光解吸电离飞行时间(matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight,MALDI-TOF)鉴定出 K gyiorum,通过 16S rRNA 部分序列分析确认,并通过试剂条(最低抑菌浓度 [minimum inhibitory concentration,MIC] = 32μg/mL)和肉汤微量稀释法(MIC = 8μg/mL)将其分类为对环丙沙星耐药。通过微扫描(MIC = 2μg/mL)验证了对环丙沙星的中介耐药性。
作者鉴定了巴西首例下肢伤口 K gyiorum,并证实其对环丙沙星耐药。
