We report, in a clinical setting, the tigecycline concentration and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) - both in blood and in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) - of a patient with a ventriculo-atrial shunt infection. Tigecycline weakly penetrates CSF the CSF-to-serum concentration ratio was 0.079 and CSF-to-serum AUC0-12 ratio was 0.067.

Abstract
We report, in a clinical setting, the tigecycline concentration and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) - both in blood and in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) - of a patient with a ventriculo-atrial shunt infection. Tigecycline weakly penetrates CSF the CSF-to-serum concentration ratio was 0.079 and CSF-to-serum AUC0-12 ratio was 0.067.
