摘要：
An extended-spectrum cephalosporin has been considered appropriate therapy for non-meningeal infections caused by drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. We report a toddler who had breakthrough bacteremia and meningitis develop because of drug-resistant pneumococcus while receiving treatment with cefotaxime and cefuroxime for pneumonia.
