概要 There are few reports of multilocus sequence type (ST) 5/staphylococcal cassette chromosome (SCC) mec type IVc/toxic shock syndrome toxin (TSST)-1- positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infections. We report a case of community-onset MRSA (CO-MRSA) bloodstream infection in a healthy 41-year-old Japanese man after nasal septoplasty, followed by pectoral abscess and costal osteomyelitis. The patient presented with right anterior chest pain and fever. After admission, MRSA was isolated from two sets of blood cultures, and vancomycin was administered. On the fifth day, contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan showed an abscess in the right anterior chest to the right subpleural region. The dosage of vancomycin (4 g/day) did not reach the effective blood concentration; therefore, there was a switch to daptomycin. On the 23rd day, contrast-enhanced MRI revealed osteomyelitis of the right first rib, and as a result, linezolid was initiated. Two weeks later, contrast-enhanced CT of the chest showed improvement in the abscess. The patient was treated for 6 weeks during hospitalization and then switched to minocycline for 10 weeks. Molecular characterization of this isolate showed that it was ST5/SCCmec type IVc/TSST-1-positive/Panton-Valentine leucocidin (PVL)-negative. PVL-negative CO-MRSA can lead to hematogenous osteomyelitis and abscess even if the patient is immunocompetent, and if isolated from blood cultures, it is important to repeat imaging studies, even if the initial imaging studies were normal. It is possible that this strain contributes to the pathogenesis of invasive CO-MRSA, but further case accumulation is needed.
