A Case of New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamases (NDM) Citrobacter sedlakii Osteomyelitis Successfully Treated With Ceftazidime-Avibactam and Aztreonam.

There have been an increase in multi-drug resistant (MDR) organisms causing infections with high mortality and morbidity. Bacteria that carry metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are particularly dangerous. Novel antibiotic combinations, such as ceftazidime-avibactam with aztreonam, are in clinical trials for the treatment of MBL-harboring bacteria.
