Liver abscess caused by magA+ Klebsiella pneumoniae in North America.

Ferric C Fang1, Netanya Sandler, Stephen J Libby.   

Abstract

Taiwan has witnessed an emerging syndrome of liver abscess caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae carrying the magA gene required for exopolysaccharide web biosynthesis. We report a patient transferred from Alaska to Washington State with a magA(+) K. pneumoniae liver abscess and describe a simple approach for recognition of these hypervirulent strains.
