Abstract


Infections with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) are among the most frequent complications in the immunocompromised cancer patients because of their considerable morbidity and mortality. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to characterize the prevalence of carbapenemase-producing GNB recovered from febrile neutropenic pediatric cancer patients in Egypt.
