To characterize a carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae complex isolate recovered from a patient from Ukraine.The isolate was sent to a regional reference laboratory for molecular characterization by whole genome sequencing. Susceptibility assays, carbapenemase identification, imipenem hydrolysis and clonality were performed.The isolate showed resistance or reduced susceptibility to all β-lactam agents tested. Genome analysis led to the identification of an NDM-1-producing E. cloacae complex strain that was assigned to a new multilocus sequence type, ST932. The blaNDM-1 enzyme was located in a conjugative IncX3 plasmid of ca. 50kb. In addition, blaCMH-3, a recently described AmpC β-lactamase sequence, which has not previously been reported in Europe, was also detected and its genetic environment was studied.To our knowledge, this is the first reported case in Europe of an E. cloacae complex strain that produces both blaNDM-1 and blaCMH-3.
