Köpek ısırığı sonrası Proteus penneri'ye bağlı yara infeksiyonu gelişen olgu
Proteus penneri (P.penneri) invaziv infeksiyon hastalalıklarına neden olabilen, nadir görülen bir Gram negatif basildir. P.penneri üriner sistem infeksiyonu, yara infeksiyonu, sepsis gibi klinik tablolara neden olabilir. Bu yazıda , köpek ısırığı sonrasında P.penneri'ye bağlı sağ kolunda yara infeksiyonu ve pürülan akıntı gelişen, amoksisilin-klavunat tedavisine yanıt vermeyen 57 yaşında bir kadın olgu sunuldu. Hastaya antibiyogram sonucuna göre piperasilin-tazobaktam tedavisi 3x4.5 gr dozda intravenöz (i.v.) yolla başlandı, tedavi 7 gün süreyle uygulandı. Tedavi sonrası lezyon bölgesindeki akıntı ve yara yeri infeksiyonu tamamen düzeldi.
Wound infection due to Proteus penneri after dog bite
Proteus penneri (P.penneri) is a rare Gram negative bacilli that can cause invasive infectious diseases. P. penneri may cause clinical manifestations such as urinary tract infection, wound infection, sepsis.In this article, a 57-years-old female patient who developed wound infection and purulent discharge in the shoulder due to P. penneri after dog bite was presented and did not respond to amoxicillin-clavunate treatment. According to the antibiogram, piperacillin-tazobactam treatment was started intravenously (i.v.) at a dose of 3x4.5 g. The treatment was administered for 7 days. After treatment, the discharge in the lesion area completely resolved.
