ABSTRACT
Background: Genus
Cedecea belong to
Enterobacteriaceae family. There are fewer of 40 reports of infectious disease caused by
C. davisae, C. lapagei and
C. neteri.
Case report: 67 years old female with second degree burns on 20% of body surface, with bronchial aspirate and blood cultures positives for
Cedecea lapagei, requiring 18 days in ICU management.
Conclusions: Infections caused by
Cedecea are very rare, its transmission is through fecal contamination and these infections appeared in immunocompromised patients. No cases informed in Mexico.
