| Popis: |
A 49-year old man who was sent to our hospital because of high fever, cellulitis at left arm and pancytopenia was diagnosed as neutropenic fever, and treatment with imipenem 4 x 500 mg intravenous (IV) and clindamycin 4 x 600 mg IV was started immediately after the cultures were taken. The patient had been followed up for type 2 diabetes mellitus for ten years, and after our clinical and laboratory examinations he was diagnosed as acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Aeromonas veronii biovar sobria was isolated as the agent of cellulitis at the left arm after trauma. As the microorganism was sensitive to imipenem, treatment according to antimicrobial susceptibility test, the present treatment was continued. The patient whose general condition worsened at the follow up died despite all supportive treatment. |
