Community-Acquired Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST59 in a Chinese Adult with Meningitis: A Case Report from China

Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) infections are reported worldwide and are associated with serious outcomes. The majority of CA-MRSA infections are soft tissue and skin infections, and cases with meningitis caused by CA-MRSA are rare. Here, we reported a 53-ye...

description Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) infections are reported worldwide and are associated with serious outcomes. The majority of CA-MRSA infections are soft tissue and skin infections, and cases with meningitis caused by CA-MRSA are rare. Here, we reported a 53-year-old male patient with meningitis due to CA-MRSA infection, as confirmed by cerebrospinal fluid examination. Whole-genome sequencing data revealed an ST59 CA-MRSA strain encoding PVL and SCCmec IV. Linezolid was administered in this case, and the patient recovered, with no signs of relapse during the one-year follow-up. We present the first case of PVL-positive ST59 CA-MRSA meningitis, with severe manifestations in China.
