Abstract
Two cases of septicaemia in granulocytopenic patients are reported. Both were caused by multiresistant aerobic (JK-group) diphtheroid rods. The bacterial isolates were resistant to all commonly used antibacterial agents but showed good sensitivity to vancomycin and rifampicin. These agents should be included in the routine sensitivity testing of such isolates and diphtheroids should always be reported by the routine laboratory for granulocytopenic patients.Entities:
