Abstract
This study highlights the presence of MRSA along with VISA and VRSA in our setting. To our knowledge, this is the first report showing that a strain can be defined as VISA phenotypically and as VRSA by molecular analysis. Such a finding raises major concerns with regard to control measures and reliable laboratory tests for screening of resistant strains.
