Report of β-lactam antibiotic–induced vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from a university hospital in Egypt

Report of β-lactam antibiotic–induced vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from a university hospital in Egypt

We report a case of hospital-acquired pneumonia that to our knowledge is the first description in Egypt of the emergence of vancomycin (VA)-resistant Staphylococcus aureus due to the concomitant use of β-lactams. The combination of β-lactam antibiotics and VA in the treatment of methicillin-resistan...
