Mitigation Strategies among Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma Patients with Positive Staphylococcus Aureus Skin and Soft Tissue Cultures Have Unclear Impacts on the Risk of Subsequent Bacteremia
Leukemia & lymphoma(2022)
摘要
Infections originating in the skin/soft tissue are a major cause of mortality in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). We performed a retrospective analysis to characterize cutaneous cultures and assess risk factors for bacteremia among 69 patients with CTCL. Cutaneous infections and antimicrobial resistance were common. Black race and lymph node involvement were associated with bacteremia. Mitigating strategies for invasive infections in CTCL remain unclear. HighlightsSkin/soft tissue infections are common in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).Black race, lymph node involvement, and positive cultures for S. aureus, Gram-negative bacteria, or multiple organisms were associated with an increased rate of bacteremia.The role of antimicrobial prophylaxis and staphylococcus decolonization is unclear.
