Endocarditis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: treatment failure with linezolid.

Maria E Ruiz1, Isabel C Guerrero, Carmelita U Tuazon.   

Abstract

We describe 2 cases of endocarditis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus that failed to respond to intravenous linezolid therapy but were successfully treated with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole plus gentamicin and vancomycin plus rifampin.
