Abstract [en]
We report a ceftriaxone-resistant, multidrug-resist-ant urogenital Neisseria gonorrhoeae in a female sex worker in Sweden, September 2022, who was treated with ceftriaxone i g, but did not return for test-of-cure. Whole genome sequencing of isolate SE690 identified MLST ST8i30, NG-STAR CCi885 (new NG-STAR ST4859) and mosaic penA-6o.oo1. The latter, causing ceftriax-one resistance in the internationally spreading FC428 clone, has now also spread to the more antimicrobial -susceptible genomic lineage B, showing that strains across the gonococcal phylogeny can develop ceftri-axone resistance.
