Case report: A successfully treated case of community-acquired urinary tract infection due to in Bangladesh.

, a nosocomial pathogen, is increasingly associated with extensive drug resistance and virulence profiles. It is responsible for high morbidity and mortality. This report describes the first successfully treated case of community-acquired urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by in an elderly housewife with Type-2 diabetes (T2D) from Dhaka, Bangladesh. The patient was empirically treated with intravenous ceftriaxone (500 mg/8 h). However, she did not respond to the treatment. The urine culture and sensitivity tests, coupled with bacterial whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and analysis, revealed the bacteria to be which was extensively drug-resistant but was susceptible to carbapenems and polymyxins. Based on these findings, meropenem (500 mg/8 h) was administered to the patient, who then responded to the treatment and recovered successfully without having a relapse. This case raises awareness of the importance of diagnosis of not-so-common etiological agents, correct identification of the pathogens, and targeted antibiotic therapy. In conclusion, correctly identifying etiological agents of UTI using WGS approaches that are otherwise difficult to diagnose could help improve the identification of infectious agents and improve the management of infectious diseases.
