Abstract

Background: A 5-year old boy with LEUKEMIA (ALL) was admitted to Mahak hospital. He had a history of surgery a few weeks ago and has an arm PORT in his left arm. Routine urine analysis showed no evidence of abnormalities. Blood culture was positive for SERRATIA MARCESCENS. The bacteria was also isolated from the culture of PORT in EMB, blood agar and chocolate agar. Antibiotic susceptibility test was carried out by disk diffusion method according to CLSI guidelines. SERRATIA MARCESCENS was sensitive to Amikacin, Imipenem, Gentamicin, Meropenem and intermediate to Ciprofloxacin, Co-trimoxazole, Ceftazidime, and resistant to Cefixime, Amoxicillin, Cephalexin, Cefazolin, Erythromycin, Norfloxacin, Tobramycin, Piperacillin, cephalothin, Tetracycline, Doxycycline, Co-amoxiclav, Ceftriaxone. The patient was treated with ceftazidime. After taking out the PORT, the next blood culture was negative.Conclusions: SERRATIA MARCESCENS is an organism that has the ability to cause bacteremia, especially among immune compromised patients and leukemic children.
