A Particularly Severe Diarrhea in Young Infants With Klebsiella spp. Cultured From the Stool: A Case Series
This case series highlights a potentially underrecognized role of Klebsiella spp. in severe infantile gastroenteritis. In young infants with unusually severe diarrhea and no other identifiable cause, Klebsiella may be pathogenic. These findings support the need for further investigation into its clinical significance and management strategies.
