Suppurative lymphadenitis caused by hypermucoid-variant Klebsiella in a Polynesian woman : a case report

Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Hypermucoid Klebsiella pneumoniae, known for its association with multiple-organ infection, has gradually increased in prevalence beyond where it was first characterized in East Asia. Here we describe a unique presentation of suppurative lymphadenitis due to hypermucoid Klebsiella in a patient from Tonga, a country with few reported cases.
