Multidrug resistant Kluyvera ascorbata septicemia in an adult patient: a case report.

Shannon Moonah1, Kavita Deonarine, Clyde Freeman.   

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Kluyvera ascorbata has become increasingly significant due to its potential to cause a wide range of infections, as well as its ability to transfer gene encoding for CTX-M- type extended spectrum B-lactamases (ESBLs) to other Enterobacteriaceae. CASE
PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 64-year-old African-American male diagnosed with severe sepsis due to a multidrug resistant Kluyvera ascorbata, which was isolated from his blood. He was treated with meropenem and had a favorable outcome.
CONCLUSION: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of a multidrug resistant Kluyvera ascorbata isolated from the blood in an adult patient with sepsis.
