Initial PN treatment in HTx recipients can be successfully carried out with bactericidal combinations such as imipenem plus amikacin or moxifloxacin, administered IV for 3-4 weeks. Within 1 month, a significant clinical and radiological improvement may be observed. In our experience, a <3 month oral regimen with cotrimoxazole, moxifloxacin, or doxycycline may then be used. This may allow a reduction of side effects and treatment-related burden, without any recurrence.
