Infecção respiratória por bactérias do complexo Burkholderia cepacia: Evolução clínica em doentes com fibrose quística

Revista Portuguesa de Pneumologia, 2008
Resumo: O complexo Burkholderia cepacia (Bcc) é um grupo constituído por nove espécies de bactérias patogénicas oportunistas na fibrose quística (FQ), associadas a prognóstico mais reservado e a infecção cruzada entre os doentes.

Serum susceptibility in clinical isolates of Burkholderia cenocepacia complex isolates: development of a growth based assay for high throughput determination

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) bacteria can cause devastating chronic infections in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Of particular concern is ‘cepacia syndrome’, a rapidly progressive and usually fatal decline in health, characterised by a ...

Research Progress on the Epidemiology, Clinical Characteristics, and Resistance Mechanisms of Burkholderia Cepacia Complex

Xiehe Yixue Zazhi
The Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) comprises a group of genetically related yet phenotypically diverse Gram-negative opportunistic pathogens. These organisms demonstrate significant pathogenicity in immunocompromised populations, particularly cystic ...

Long-term colonization of the cystic fibrosis lung by Burkholderia cepacia complex bacteria: epidemiology, clonal variation and genome-wide expression alterations

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
Long-term respiratory infections with Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) bacteria in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients generally lead to a more rapid decline in lung function and, in some cases, to a fatal necrotizing pneumonia known as the cepacia syndrome.

Beyond Cystic Fibrosis: Recognising Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome in the Respiratory Clinic. [PDF]

Respirol Case Rep
Our case shows how SDS can mimic CF (borderline sweat electrolytes, recurrent lower respiratory infections, pancreatic insufficiency) but diverge in trajectory and management. Over 42 years, our patient demonstrated: (1) recurrent infections, (2) persistent pancreatic insufficiency and (3) intermittent neutropenia.

Burkholderia cepacia in cystic fibrosis children and adolescents: overall survival and immune alterations [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundIn current literature there are only scarce data on the host inflammatory response during Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) persistence. The primary objective of the present research was to carry out cross-sectional analyses of biomarkers and ...

Community acquired Burkholderia cepacia sepsis in a patient with megaloblastic anemia: a case report and review of literature [PDF]

Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine, 2022
Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is known to cause respiratory tract infections among patients with cystic fibrosis. Burkholderia infection is also seen in patients admitted in ICUs who are immunocompromised and results in lower respiratory tract ...
