Liver Transplantation and Gut Microbiota Profiling in a Child Colonized by a Multi-Drug Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae: A New Approach to Move from Antibiotic to “Eubiotic” Control of Microbial Resistance

Liver Transplantation and Gut Microbiota Profiling in a Child Colonized by a Multi-Drug Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae: A New Approach to Move from Antibiotic to “Eubiotic” Control of Microbial Resistance

The increase of microorganisms multi-drug resistant (MDR) to antibiotics (ATBs) is becoming a global emergency, especially in frail subjects. In chronic liver disease (LD) with indications for liver transplantation (LT), MDR colonization can significantly affect the LT outcome. However, no clear gui...
