Description

Elizabeth Leung, Ramzi Fattouh, Mark Verway, and Charlie Tan present a French case from 2026 of a hard-to-treat infection after surgery in a 45-year-old woman. She had come to Canada after a road crash in Nigeria broke three bones in her right arm. The breaks were washed, set with outer frames, and later fixed with inner plates, but the wound grew infected.

The germs at fault make an enzyme that breaks the last-resort class of antibiotics, and they shrug off many other classes too. New drugs in the beta-lactam class can now treat such infections, the team notes. Yet swift, fit care is hard when lab tests for drug fit are slow to reach. The case lays out the care path and the blocks the team met.
