ABSTRACT
Antimicrobial resistant
Acinetobacter baumanii (ABC) infections cases, in particular due to the complex
Acinetobacter
nosocomialis and
Acinetobacter pittii have increased in recent years. It has being considered as an important cause of
community infections and in those associated to health care. A case of a 40-year-old male patient who developed two
weeks prior to admission, generalized abdominal pain and weight loss is presented; a thoracic-abdominal tomography
was performed where multiple mediastinal lymphadenopathy, extensive alveolar infiltrates were identified, in both lungs
a bronchogram image and consolidation areas were compatible with the pneumonic process. An expectoration culture
was requested, through the automated microbial identification system VITEK
® 2 (bioMérieux),
A. baumannii complex
(99%) was identified and isolated
A. pittii.
