Necrotizing Fasciitis Caused by Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae in a Filipino Female in North America [PDF]
Western Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2014 Necrotizing fasciitis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae has been described in Southeast Asia, but has only recently begun to emerge in North America. The hypermucoviscous strain of K.

A Fatal Case of Necrotizing Pneumonia Caused by Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae. [PDF]
Clin Case RepABSTRACTNecrotizing pneumonia has a high mortality rate of approximately 50%. Its computed tomography findings lack enhancement in areas of consolidation. These findings should be interpreted as potentially indicative of a severe clinical course. Hypermucovisous strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae are often hypervirulent and may cause fatal necrotizing ...

Two unusual cases of successful treatment of hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae invasive syndrome [PDF]
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2016 Background A few Japanese cases of hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) invasive syndrome have recently been reported. Although extrahepatic complications from bacteremic dissemination have been observed, infected aneurysms are rare ...

Recurrent bacteremia with a hypermucoviscous Escherichia coli isolated from a patient with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma: insights from a comprehensive genome-based analysis [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2022 Background Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a common human pathogen, responsible for a broad spectrum of infections. Sites of infection can vary, but the hepato-biliary system is of particular concern due to the infection-associated formation of gallstones ...

Monomicrobial necrotizing fasciitis in a white male caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2009 We report a case of monomicrobial necrotizing fasciitis caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae in an immunocompromised white male after travel to China. The K. pneumoniae isolate belonged to the K2 serotype, and carried the virulence factors RmpA and aerobactin.

Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae: A challenge in community acquired infection
IDCases, 2019 In 1986, a new syndrome was described in Taiwan secondary to hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKP), and its main feature was the ability to cause severe infection in young and immunocompetent hosts. Their virulence is explained by the efficient acquisition of iron and an increase in capsule production, which confer the characteristic hypermucoviscous ...
