We describe the management of a case of multidrug-resistant
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia
in a patient who had previously undergone photorefractive keratectomy and subsequent penetrating keratoplasty for Schnyder’s crystalline corneal dystrophy. This pathogen is rare and, in this case, was multi-drug resistant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
