Successful Management of Multidrug-Resistant <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Pneumonia after Kidney Transplantation in a Dog

Abstract: An 8-year-old male mongrel dog that had undergone renal transplantation was presented 25 days later with an acute cough, anorexia and exercise intolerance. During the investigation, neutrophilic leukocytosis was noted, and thoracic radiographs revealed caudal lung lobe infiltration. While being treated with two broad-spectrum antibiotics, clinical signs worsened. Pneumonia due to infection with multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas (P.) aeruginosa, sensitive only to imipenem and amikacin, was confirmed by bact… Show more

“…Was found that strains of P. aeruginosa isolates are resistant to multiple drugs, suggesting that selective pressure created by the persistent and possibly inappropriate use of these antimicrobials in veterinary clinic practice is one of the determining factors for the emergence of resistance; reason that justifies the MIR greater than 0.5 in 80% of P. aeruginosa strains isolated in the study; these results are consistent with those reported by Kyung-Mee on 2013 (27).…”

“…Se encontró que las cepas de P. aeruginosa aisladas son resistentes a múltiples fármacos, lo que sugiere que la presión selectiva creada por el uso persistente y posiblemente inadecuado de estos antimicrobianos en la práctica clínica veterinaria, es uno de los factores determinantes para la aparición de la resistencia; por esta razón se justifica un MIR superior al 0,5 en el 80% de las cepas de P. aeruginosa aisladas en el estudio; estos resultados son consistentes con los reportados por Kyung-Mee en 2013 (27).…”

“…P. aeruginosa infections can be associated with immunosuppression in companion animals. Pneumonia in a dog post‐kidney transplant has been reported (Park et al, 2013) along with cancer treatment‐associated infections (Curran et al, 2021). Some dog breeds are more prone to particular infections, with one example being eye infections in the St. Bernard: P. aeruginosa was the most common Gram‐negative pathogen in that niche and breed, and the most common multidrug‐resistant (MDR) pathogen with 100% of isolates displaying resistance to more than seven different antimicrobials (Nadăș et al, 2021).…”

“…Sadece birkaç antibiyotik Pseudomonas'lara karşı etkilidir ki bunlar, flourokinolonlar, gentamisin ve imipenem'dir. Yine de bunların herbiri tüm serotiplere karşı etkili değildir [19,24]. Köpeklerde P. aeruginosa ile ilişkili bronşiektazi enfeksiyonlarında, amoksisilin klavulanik asit kombinasyonu hariç betalaktamlar uygun seçim değildir çünkü solunum yollarına penetrasyonları zayıftır.…”
