Klebsiella pneumoniae Biofilms and Their Role in Disease Pathogenesis

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
The ability to form biofilms is a crucial virulence trait for several microorganisms, including Klebsiella pneumoniae – a Gram-negative encapsulated bacterium often associated with nosocomial infections.

Genomic dissection of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in hospital patients reveals insights into an opportunistic pathogen

Nature Communications, 2022
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a major cause of opportunistic healthcare-associated infections, which are increasingly complicated by the presence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenem resistance.

Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia

Heart & Lung, 1997
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an uncommon cause of community-acquired pneumonia except in alcoholics. Klebsiella may mimic pulmonary reactivation tuberculosis because it presents with hemoptysis and cavitating lesions. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a difficult infection to treat because of the organism's thick capsule.
