Enterobacter spp. are members of the 'ESKAPE' group of pathogens, which which are recognised as the leading cause of multidrug-resistant (MDR) hospital-acquired infections. Colistin is usually regarded as a last-line therapeutic option for MDR Gram-negative bacilli infections. However, colistin-resistant Enterobacter spp.
