Significance and Impact of the Study: Leclercia adecarboxylata is a rarely reported human pathogen. We report here the case from bovine suffering from respiratory distress; the sample yielded Leclercia species as polymicrobial culture. The isolate was found to be multidrug resistant and evidenced for uncertain clinical relevance and could act as hidden source of public health hazard. The limited literature available on this organism is reviewed, and the potential implications of findings are discussed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of isolation and characterization of multidrug-resistant Leclercia species from animal clinical case from India. AbstractLeclercia adecarboxylata, a Gram-negative bacillus of family Enterobacteriaceae, is an uncommonly identified pathogen isolated from environmental and clinical specimens. Most of the human infections are polymicrobial and commonly occur in immunocompromised hosts, although nosocomial infections in immunocompetent hosts have been documented. Here, we describe the case of isolation of Leclercia species as polymicrobial infection from bovine suffering from respiratory distress in Chhattisgarh state of India. The isolates were identified by their phenotypes, 16S rDNA sequencing and MALDI-TOF-MS. The isolate was found to be resistant to aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolone antibiotics and intermediate resistant to cephalosporins and evidenced for uncertain clinical relevance and could act as hidden source of public health hazard.

Infección asociada a catéter por Leclercia adecarboxylata y Raoultella ornithinolytica en un paciente con enfermedad mitocondrial

RESUMENLeclercia adecarboxylata y Raoultella ornithinolytica constituyen bacterias Gram-negativas emergentes. Los casos descritos son excepcionales. En los últimos años, las mejoras en las técnicas de diagnóstico microbiológico han permitido su detección y conocimiento. Se presenta el caso de un niño de 11 años con enfermedad mitocondrial, portador de catéter venoso central de larga duración, que desarrolló dos episodios de sepsis por L. adecarboxylata y R. ornithinolytica, respectivamente. En los casos de infección asociada al uso de catéter, es posible, en ocasiones, el tratamiento sin su retirada con evolución favorable. Es importante reconocer L. adecarboxylata y R. ornithinolytica como patógenos de diagnóstico cada vez más frecuentes, sobre todo, en pacientes inmunodeprimidos o con patologías crónicas asociadas. Palabras clave: sepsis, Enterobacteriaceae, infecciones relacionadas con catéteres, enfermedades mitocondriales, pediatría.ABSTRACT Leclercia adecarboxylata and Raoultella ornithinolytica are emergent Gram-negative bacteria. Infections caused by these microorganisms are exceptional. Improvement of microbiologist techniques in the last years has enabled their detection and more accurate knowledge. We present the case of an 11-year-old boy with mitochondrial disease with a longterm central catheter who suffered from two sepsis caused by L. adecarboxylata and R. ornithinolytica, respectively. In catheter-related infections, sometimes it is possible to provide antimicrobial treatment without removal of catheter with good results, as in our patient. It is important to recognize L. adecarboxylata and R. ornithinolytica like increasingly frequent pathogenic bacteria, mostly in immunocompromised or chronic patients.
