The significance of chronic lung infection by multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) transplanted patients remains controversial, and the available information is overall limited. Here we describe the case of a chronic infection, sustained by a metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing P. aeruginosa strain, in a CF patient following lung transplantation.

Abstract
The significance of chronic lung infection by multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) transplanted patients remains controversial, and the available information is overall limited. Here we describe the case of a chronic infection, sustained by a metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing P. aeruginosa strain, in a CF patient following lung transplantation.
