Abstract

Ochrobactrum anthropi causes nosocomial infections in patients with immunosuppression andinsertedmedical devices. Without additional risk factors, community-acquired bacteremia and/or pneumonia due to O. anthropi is rarely reported in children. In this case report we present community-acquired bacteremia due to O. Anthropi, and the need of mechanical ventilation for severe pneumonia in a previously healthy child because of its rarity. Previously healthy 13 month old female patient was admitted to our pediatric intensive care unit due to community-acquired pneumonia and respiratory failure. Vancomycin and ceftriaxone combination with mechanical ventilation support was started. O. anthropi was determined in blood cultures (ceftriaxone resistant). The antibiotic regimen was not modified since there was a good clinical response to the ampiric treatment, and the control blood cultures remained sterile. The patient was discharged healthy on the 13th day. In conclusion, O. anthropi as an opportunistic bacilli can cause bacteremia and severe pneumonia in a child without predisposing factors.

Özet

Ochrobactrum anthropi daha çok immün sistemi baskılanmış, tıbbi aletler yerleştirilmiş hastalarda hastane enfeksiyonuna neden olmaktadır. Ek bir risk faktörü olmayan çocuklarda O. anthropi'ye bağlı toplumdan kazanılmış bakteriyemi ve pnömoni literatürde nadiren bildirilmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda O. anthropi'ye bağlı toplumdan kazanılmış bakteriyemi ve ağır pnömoni nedeniyle mekanik ventilasyon ihtiyacı olan daha önce sağlıklı bir olgu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunulmuştur. Önceden sağlıklı olan 13 aylık kız olgu, toplum kaynaklı pnömoni ve ağır solunum yetmezliği nedeniyle çocuk yoğun bakım servisinde izleme alınmıştır. Mekanik ventilasyon desteği ile birlikte vankomisin ve seftriakson tedavisi başlanan hastanın geliş kan kültüründe O. anthropi (seftriakson dirençli) saptanmıştır. Verilen tedaviye klinik yanıt görüldüğünden antibiyotik tedavisi değiştirilmemiş, kontrol kan kültüründe üreme saptanmamıştır. Hasta izleminin 13. gününde sağlıklı olarak taburcu edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak fırsatçı bir basil olan O. anthropi bilinen kolaylaştırıcı faktör olmadan da bakteriyemi ve pnömoni nedeni olabilmektedir.
