description BACKGROUND: Community-acquired infections of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) occur very rarely. CASE PRESENTATION: P. aeruginos was detected in cultures of venous blood and peritoneal exudate of a newborn with 58 perforations in the small intestine. Intravenous administration of imipenem cilastratin sodium and emergency abdominal surgery were performed. The patient fully recovered and was discharged 17 days after the operation. CONCLUSIONS: Mild symptoms of systemic infections in newborns may delay the diagnosis. Early detection and timely treatment are the key to improved prognosis.
