ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) is the primary pathogen associated with pyogenic liver abscesses (PLAs). Moreover, there has been an increase in the proportion of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing KP. However, the clinical and computed tomography (CT) features of liver abscesses caused by ESBL-producing KP have not been separately described. We aimed to compare the clinical and CT features present in patients with ESBL-producing and non-ESBL-producing KP as well as to determine the risk factors for ESBL-producing KP liver abscesses (KPLAs).METHODS:
We performed a retrospective analysis of data obtained from the medical records of patients with a first episode of KPLA admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University between May 2015 and May 2019. We compared the clinical and CT features between patients with ESBL-producing and non-ESBL-producing KPLA.RESULTS:
We enrolled 100 patients with KPLA (14 and 86 in the ESBL-producing and non-ESBL-producing groups, respectively). There was no significant between-group difference in the proportion of patients with comorbid diabetes (71.43% vs. 66.2%, p = 0.086). The ESBL-producing KPLA group had a greater proportion of patients with a history of biliary disease (78.57% vs. 26.74%, p < 0.001) and gastrointestinal malignancy (50% vs. 6.98%, p < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that a history of biliary disease was an independent risk factor for ESBL-producing KPLA. Compared with the non-ESBL-producing KPLA group, the ESBL-producing KPLA group had a significantly higher intensive care unit (ICU) admission rate (28.57% vs. 2.33%, p < 0.001). All ESBL-producing KP isolates were susceptible to carbapenems and amikacin. Only the presence of multiloculation on CT was found to be significantly different between the groups (50% vs. 82.56%, p = 0.012).CONCLUSIONS:
The presence of biliary disease was an independent risk factor for ESBL-producing KPLA. Patients with ESBL-producing KPLA had a higher ICU admission rate, with only half of patients having evidence of multiloculation on CT.Palabras clave
