Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae (hmkp) strain [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae exhibits distinct phenotypic and genetic characteristics that distinguish it from the classic K. pneumoniae pathogen.

Antimicrobial resistance in hypermucoviscous and non-hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae : a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Antimicrobial resistance has recently increased due to emerging carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing strains of K. pneumoniae, especially among hypermucoviscous K. pneumoniae (hmKp) strains.

Hypermucoviscous (HMV) Klebsiella pneumoniae produces large amounts of capsular polysaccharides, leading to high mortality. Since extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing HMV K. pneumoniae strains have increased in Japan, we investigated and compared the antimicrobial susceptibilities and genetic characteristics of HMV and non-HMV ESBL ...

Acute femoral osteomyelitis due to hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae
Hypervirulent hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae strains have emerged as clinically important pathogens causing invasive infections. K. pneumoniae osteomyelitis is uncommon in adult patients, and may mimic bone tumors on presentation.

Genome sequence of a virulent and hypermucoviscous-like Klebsiella michiganensis clinical isolate
Objectives The hypermucoviscous-like phenotype has been described in Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex (KpSC) and was described as a contributor of increased virulence.
