Infections caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDRPA) present a major problem for therapeutic management. We report our experience in 12 patients with severe MDRPA infections (of which 6 were pneumonias) who received salvage therapy with ceftolozane/tazobactam after inappropriate empirical treatment and/or suboptimal targeted treatment. Although 10 of the 12 patients (83.3%) had septic shock, only 3 patients (25%) died during follow-up. Microbiological cure was observed in 7 patients (58.3%).
