Özet

The first outbreak of OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates was reported in Turkey in 2008 (1). Two different clones were detected among 39 K. pneumoniae isolates in the first published outbreak (1). In addition to the clones of individual hospitals, the plasmid-mediated nature of OXA-48 offers the opportunity for horizontal transfer between strains and genera, resulting in dissemination both on a national and international level (2, 3).
