Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae: Insights into Virulence, Antibiotic Resistance, and Fight Strategies Against a Superbug

15 May 2025

Abstract excerpt

Community-acquired infections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) have become a significant global health concern, particularly with the emergence of hypervirulent strains (hvKP). These strains are associated with severe infections, such as pyogenic liver abscesses, even in otherwise healthy individuals. Initially reported in Taiwan in the 1980s, hvKP has now spread worldwide. The pathogenicity of...
