Although the blood cultures at admission and at the time of fever and chill were negative, a stent infection was highly suspected in the patient. 18F-flurodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography computed tomography image (FDG-PET-CT) subsequently confirmed our suspicion (Figure 2).
Hemoglobin and platelet variation detected by complete blood count monitor. (D1 is the first day of first-time LZD-treatment). Multiple antimicrobials were given to the patient before and after LZD therapy was initiated. Blue bars show periods of administration of antibiotics.
