Ceftazidime/Avibactam-Resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> subsp. <i>pneumoniae</i> Isolates in a Tertiary Italian Hospital: Identification of a New Mutation of the Carbapenemase Type 3 (KPC-3) Gene Conferring Ceftazidime/Avibactam Resistance

Ceftazidime/Avibactam-Resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> subsp. <i>pneumoniae</i> Isolates in a Tertiary Italian Hospital: Identification of a New Mutation of the Carbapenemase Type 3 (KPC-3) Gene Conferring Ceftazidime/Avibactam Resistance

Several <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> carpabenemase (KPC) gene mutations are associated with ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ-AVI) resistance. Here, we describe four <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> subsp. <i>pneumoniae</i> CAZ-AVI-resistant clinical isolates, collected at t...
