肺炎克雷伯菌已成为社区获得性单微生物化脓性肝脓肿的主要原因。此病最早在台湾发现，并在亚洲得到广泛报道。这种传染性实体在欧洲已有描述，以单例报告为主。我们提出三个病例在一年内从我们的机构在爱尔兰和回顾欧洲文献到目前为止。肺炎克雷伯菌侵袭性肝脓肿综合征现在出现在欧洲，值得注意的是，它并不局限于个体的亚洲血统。
Klebsiella pneumoniae has emerged as a predominant cause of community-acquired mono-microbial pyogenic liver abscess. This was first described in Taiwan and has been widely reported in Asia. This infectious entity has been described in Europe, with single case reports predominating.We present three cases in one year from our institution in Ireland and review the European literature to date.Klebsiella pneumoniae invasive liver abscess syndrome is now emerging in Europe and notably is not restricted to individuals of Asian descent.
