Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has been recognized as an emerging multidrug resistant organism in hospital settings due to its resistance to a broad range of antimicrobial agents. These include β-lactams and aminoglycosides, afforded by the existence of intrinsic and acquired resistance mechanisms. Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (SXT) is recommended as one of the best treatment choices against S....
