The persistence of staphylococcal arthritis in a patient treated with nafcillin was attributed to intracellular sequestration of staphylococci. These intraphagocytic organisms were protected against bactericidal activity. The infection was cleared by rifampin—an agent which can penetrate leucocyte membranes. When clinical infections do not respond to seemingly adequate antimicrobial treatment, intracellular persistence of bacteria should be considered.
