    (Elsevier B.V., 2003-02-01) Andrade-Baiocchi, S.; Tognim, MCB; Baiocchi, Otavio Carvalho Guimarães [UNIFESP]; Sader, H. S.; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    We report a case of infective endocarditis due to vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA) that did not respond to high doses of vancomycin. Initial vancomycin MIC of the last isolate recovered from blood was 8 1 mug/mL, but could be induced up to 32 mug/mL by consecutive growing with vancomycin. Clinical response was only accomplished when linezolid was included in therapy. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
