G. Kiliptari*, Grigol Nemsadze
ABSTRACT
Bacteremia caused by Staphylococcus aureus is a serious infection associated with high morbidity and mortality and often results in infective endocarditis, abscess of lung, which have a negative impact on patient outcomes. Highly virulent, antibiotic-resistant strains such as methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) are particularly challenging to treat. In S. aureus-induced pneumonia, the intense inflammatory response leads to severe lung injury and ARDS. We present a case to highlight the need for prolonged treatment and close monitoring of patients espetially with scomplications associated with S. aureus bacteremia. The patient was transferred from the clinic, where he was admitted for paraplegia of the lower extremities, transverse myelitis was diagnosed. He underwent pulse therapy with methylpredizolone, due to the deterioration of his condition, he was transferred to the intensive care unit of our hospital.The patient underwent repeated examinations and was diagnosed with an epidural abscess at the level of the C5-Th1 vertebrae.
