Abstract excerpt
In this study, we characterized a Klebsiella pneumoniae strain in a patient with shrapnel hip injury, which resulted in multiple phenotypic changes, including the formation of a small colony variant (SCV) phenotype. Although already described since the 1960s, there is little knowledge about SCV phenotypes in Enterobacteriaceae .
