Staphylococcus lugdunensis carrying the mecA gene causes catheter-associated bloodstream infection in premature neonate.

Wen Sim Nancy Tee1, Shui Yen Soh, Raymond Lin, Liat Hui Loo.   

Abstract

A premature neonate had a catheter-associated bloodstream infection due to Staphylococcus lugdunensis. The MIC of oxacillin for the strain was >256 microg/ml, and the mecA gene of S. lugdunensis was detected by PCR. The infection was resolved after removal of the line and treatment with vancomycin for 2 weeks.
