Abstract | Objectives: To characterize a carbapenem-resistant Citrobacter freundii (Cf-Emp) co-producing class A, B and D carbapenemases, resistant to novel β-lactamase inhibitor combinations (BLICs) and cefiderocol. Methods: Carbapenemase production was tested by an immunochromatography assay. Antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) was performed by broth microdilution. WGS was performed using short- and long-read sequencing. Transfer of carbapenemase-encoding plasmids was assessed by conjugation experiments. Results: Cf-Emp was isolated on selective medium for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales from the surveillance rectal swab taken at hospital admission from a patient of Moroccan origin. Cf-Emp produced three different carbapenemases, including KPC-2, OXA-181 and VIM-1, and was resistant to all β-lactams including carbapenems, novel BLICs (ceftazidime/avibactam, meropenem/vaborbactam and imipenem/relebactam) and cefiderocol. MIC of aztreonam/avibactam was 0.25 mg/L. The strain belonged to ST22, one of the C. freundii lineages of global diffusion, known to be associated with carbapenemase production. Each carbapenemase gene was located aboard a different plasmid (named pCf-KPC, pCf-OXA and pCf-VIM, respectively), which also carried other clinically relevant resistance genes, such as armA (pCf-KPC), blaSHV-12 (pCf-VIM) and qnrS1 (pCf-OXA). Transferability to Escherichia coli J53 by conjugation was observed for all plasmids. Conclusions: The finding of enterobacterial strains carrying multiple carbapenemase genes on transferable plasmids is alarming, because similar strains could provide an important reservoir for disseminating these clinically relevant resistance determinants. |
