Description
Summary:<i>Pandoraea pnomenusa</i> is a Gram-negative bacterium of the <i>Pandoraea</i> genus and is mainly associated with the colonization of structurally abnormal airways. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many microorganisms have been associated with coinfection and superinfection in SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, but so far, no coinfection or superinfection by <i>P. pnomenusa</i> has been reported. We present the first case describing this association in a previously healthy patient. Clinical manifestations, treatment, and outcomes are shown.
