Infectious arthritis caused by Klebsiella. A report of two cases

H M Markusse et al. Clin Rheumatol. 1989 Dec.

Abstract

Klebsiella arthritis is uncommon. This report describes 2 cases seen in one year in one hospital and reviews the previous 9 well-documented cases. Despite a long delay in diagnosis, antibiotic treatment without drainage procedures resulted in complete cure in one patient and cure with some impairment in the other.
