Infection with multi-drug resistant bacteria is an uprising clini cal problem that requires the development of new antimicrobial agents. Sulbactam/avibactam increases sulbactam activity against multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in vitro; however, it has not been tested clinically yet.
Clinical and evolutionary features of SARS CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) in children

An Orocutaneous Fistula In A Puckered Scar Treated With Local Flaps : A Case Report
Aesthetic facial reconstruction requires understanding regional anatomy and tissue movement and the ability to use innovative ly the tissue adjacent to the defect to create a reconstruction that preserves the function of the area and the cosmetic facial units [1]. Here we present a case of right cheek post-operative puckered scar with orocutaneous fistula operated and covered with hinge flap for inner lining and limberg flap for cover. The defect is filled with tissue of the same thickness and colour, and with good vascularity [2]. Here we used local tissues for facial resurfacing to restore fa cial contour and closure of fistula.
