Abstract excerpt

This report presents the case of a patient associated with a Streptococcus pneumoniae isolate that was resistant to a new ketolide antibiotic, telithromycin (minimum inhibitory concentration: 4 microg/ml). The patient, a 61-year-old female with bronchiectasis, was treated with 200-400 mg of clarithromycin daily for 6 years until the isolation of the resistant strain but without prior exposure to telithromycin....
