Abstract excerpt
In the course of an Escherichia coli cholecystitis, demonstrated by positive blood cultures, the authors observed a therapeutic failure with amoxicillin/clavulanate, probably related to the isolation in blood cultures, nine days after the beginning of the treatment, of a beta-lactam resistant E. coli strain (MICs of the amoxicillin combined with clavulanate was 64 mg/l and ceftazidim 16 mg/l).
