Abstract
A case of sino-pulmonary infection with skull base osteomyelitis due to XDR-Pseudomonas aeruginosa in renal transplant recipient was successfully treated with investigational antibiotic, cefepime/zidebactam (WCK 5222). This case highlights challenges in managing XDR-pseudomonal infection where source control was infeasible, antibiotic options were extremely limited and individualized dose adjustments were needed.
