Abstract
We report the case of successful treatment of a 31-year-old lady with cystic fibrosis and an en-bloc liver–pancreas transplant, who developed cepacia syndrome on a background of chronic infection with the ET12 epidemic strain of Burkholderia cenocepacia. Combination therapy with nebulised and intravenous meropenem and tobramycin led to clinical improvement with a return to baseline function and complete resolution of the acute chest X-ray changes.
