Invasive infection from Kingella kingae: Not only arthritis

Kingella kingae is a known pathogen for osteoarticular infections in young children. However other invasive infections such as pneumonia in immunocompetent patients are scarcely described in literature. We present an unusual case of bacteremia and lower respiratory tract infection in a previously he...

description Kingella kingae is a known pathogen for osteoarticular infections in young children. However other invasive infections such as pneumonia in immunocompetent patients are scarcely described in literature. We present an unusual case of bacteremia and lower respiratory tract infection in a previously healthy infant, the first one described in Greek pediatric population. The pathogen was identified using both culture and molecular techniques
