In an attempt to further characterize infections due to Xanthomonas maltophilia, we reviewed 20 colonisations and 30 infections observed in our institution from january 1990 to december 1992, Xanthomonas maltophilia is emerging as an important nosocomial pathogen in immunocompromised patients, especially those receiving broad spectrum antimicrobial antibiotherapy. Distinction between colonisation and infection is often difficult. Xanthomonas maltophilia presents a therapeutic challenge because of its tendency to exhibit multiple resistance.
为了进一步描述嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌引起的感染，我们回顾了1990年1月至1992年12月在我们机构观察到的20例定植和30例感染情况。嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌正在成为免疫功能低下患者，尤其是接受广谱抗菌药物治疗的患者中一种重要的医院病原体。区分定植和感染往往很困难。嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌因其表现出多重耐药的倾向而带来了治疗挑战。
