Kluyvera urinary tract infection: case report and review of the literature
Abstract
We report the occurrence of Kluyvera ascorbata urinary tact infection, presenting as acute pyelonephritis, in a 19-month-old girl without underlying uropathy. Quick response to antibiotic therapy was obtained, and there was no residual renal parenchymal damage. We review the literature of infections with this very uncommon organism with particular emphasis on pediatric urinary tract infections.
