1. Vignette of tuboovarian abscess—cervical swab demonstrates gram –ve intracellular diplococci.laparoscopy done and drained, sample obtained was examined: gram negative rods also found
with diplococci.
What organism is it most likely:
bacteroides, Chlamydia, myco tbc, treponema
2. Mechanism of vancomycin resistance:
plasmid mediated,chromosomal mediated, substitution
of AA in a polypeptide?

1.- Chlamydia
2.-Plasmid mediated

1. N. Gonorrhea and Chlamydia inf ( they both co-exist) but gram Negative Rods indicate Bacteriodes.
2. substitution of AA in a polypeptide its the replacement of D-Ala by D-Lactate in the bacteria terminal chain.

1.bacterioides
2.D-ala D-ala-------->D-ala D-lactate

BACTEROIDS
vancomycin resistance--change terminal D-ala to D-lactate,vancomycine can't recognise bag-doesn't work

its abscess buddy...abscess in an area where OXYGEN is not likely to reach n if it reaches it is taken up by neisseria
anyway...
the point is bacteroides ...the most common bacteria in COLON.... also present in 60% of women as a normal flora...
soooo....bacteroides...

the other organism likely to be there should be microaerophlic streptococcie...
anyway...
chlamydia with neisseria usually CO EXIST...but abscess formation isnt a featuer of chlamydia....

vanc resistance isnt HIGH LEVEL as yet so its plasmid mediated...easy to rmember
