Catheter-Related ESBL-Producing Leclercia adecarboxylata Septicemia in Hemodialysis Patient: An Emerging Pathogen?

We report a multidrug-resistant strain of Leclercia adecarboxylata which was responsible for a catheter-related bacteremia, in a 50-year-old female with an end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis. The isolated strain was an extended beta-lactamase producer. Based on a literature review of L. adecarb...
