ST11 KPC-2-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated from Patient with Acute Myelocytic Leukemia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The emergence of the ST11-CRKP (ST11-CRKP) strain is expected to become a serious public health problem in China. As one of the most serious complications in patients with acute myeloid lymphoma, infections can cause systemic infection and life-threatening sepsis, seriously affecting the morbidity, mortality, and quality of life of patients. Thus, ST11-CRKP infections in patients with acute myeloid lymphoma are worthy of our attention.

Aim

To investigate the occurrence and genetic characteristics of the ST11-CRKP from a patient with acute myeloid lymphoma.

Methods

Species identification was determined by MALDI-TOF MS. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) was conducted by VITEK 2 system with AST-N335 panel. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on the
