Ceftolozane-tazobactam can be an alternative treatment option for children with endocarditis caused by multidrug-resistant I Pseudomonas aeruginosa i sensitive to this antibiotic. On the eighth day of admission, the patient developed progressive conduit stenosis, right ventricle failure, persistence of I P. aeruginosa i in blood cultures and absence of clinical improvement despite antibiotic therapy. There are few options of antibiotic treatment in children with multidrug-resistant (MDR) I P. aeruginosa i, especially in carbapenem-resistant I P. aeruginosa. i Ceftolozane-tazobactam is a new antibiotic recently approved for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal and urinary tract infections in adults.[Extracted from the article]
