Abstract EN

Infections that are caused by Kluyvera bacteria have been previously reported in the medical literature; however, they seem to be less common.

Herein, we report a case of urinary tract infection and severe sepsis caused by Kluyvera ascorbata in a 73-year-old female.

We also did a brief literature review of infections caused by this organism in adults.
