Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis complicated with central nervous system involvement: A case series

Abstract

Central nervous system (CNS) infection with Klebsiella pneumoniae can be a complication of invasive liver abscess syndrome; however, CNS infections due to K. pneumoniae without liver abscesses are rare. We report three fatal cases of CNS infection due to K. pneumoniae that lacked liver abscesses during the initial investigation.
