Abstract
We aimed to analyze the molecular epidemiology of 46 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from breast infections. The USA300 lineage carrying SCCmecIVa, arginine catabolic mobile element, t008, ST8, and Panton-Valentine leukocidin genes was predominant (93%). This is the first study that describes the spread of the USA300 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clone in breast infections in Brazil.
