title: Enterobacter hafnaie infection: report of two cases and review of the literature.
abstract: Two of 255 wounded soldiers developed nosocomial infection with Enterobacter hafniae. This species is rarely associated with urinary or gastrointestinal disease, and had not been heretofore reported in the setting of localized or bacteremic wound infection. Difficulties in nomenclature and identification have obviated accurate assessment of the importance of E. hafniae as a pathogen. Nevertheless, in view of the relative sensitivity of this species to antibiotics one should be careful to distinguish E. hafniae from other members of the genus Enterobacter.
