Simultaneous presence of an invasive and a carrier strain of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a family.

B Soderquist1, C Berglund.   

Abstract

Simultaneous carriage of multiple clones of MRSA has rarely been reported. We describe a case of bacteraemia and osteomyelitis due to CA-MRSA and the simultaneous presence of 2 clones of MRSA in a family, 1 strain with an invasive capacity and another strain colonizing several family members.
