Here we report the description of an XDR H. parainfluenzae producing blaCTX-M-15 isolated from a urethral swab. The blaCTX-M-15 gene was inserted into an ICE structure similar to those recently described in CTX-M-15 producers in Spain. The emergence of XDR H. parainfluenzae producing blaCTX-M-15 is a matter of great concern. Careful surveillance is required to prevent its spread.
