title: [Role of Klebsiella pneumoniae in the etiology of bacterial sepsis].
abstract: 206 K. pneumoniae cultures isolated from 72 patients with the positive results of the hemoculture (obtained with specimens taken both from living patients and from autopsy material) were studied; of these cultures, 104 were isolated from the blood and 72 from specimens taken from different organs. Among enterobacteria isolated from the blood, Klebsiella organisms constituted 33% (taking the second place after E. coli in occurrence). K. pneumoniae isolated from the blood were classified mainly with serovars K16, K18, K2, K33, K13, K24. The data on the etiological role of these microorganisms in sepsis occurring either as acute primary infection or as septic complication in various diseases were obtained.
