Abstract

Klebsiella pneumoniae producing KPC is a great health concern and therapy with ceftazidime-avibactam represent a choice for the treatment of infections supported by these strains. We report a ceftazidime-avibactam resistant strain by a deletion of 6 nucleotides in the blaKPC gene sequence.
