Multidrug-resistant Raoultella ornithinolytica misidentified as Klebsiella oxytoca carrying blaOXA β-lactamases: antimicrobial profile and genomic characterization

Iliana Alejandra Cortes-Ortiz et al.

Summary: Class D beta-lactamases OXA-232 and OXA-48 were found to hydrolyze penicillin, cephalosporins, and carbapenems, limiting therapeutic options for bacteraemia. The study identified Raoultella ornithinolytica carrying OXA 232 and OXA-48 genes, confirming the results of the beta-lactamases assay. This represents the first report of multidrug resistance R. ornithinolytica in Mexico, highlighting the emergence of OXA producer microorganisms as a significant threat.

Microbiological and Clinical Aspects of Raoultella spp.

Tobias M. Appel et al.

Summary: Species of Raoultella and Klebsiella share many similarities and are practically indistinguishable in clinical microbiology laboratories due to technological limitations. There has been an increase in case reports of human Raoultella infections since the late 2000s, leading some authors to suggest Raoultella spp. as rare and/or emerging pathogens. Further studies are needed to clarify the epidemiology and clinical relevance of human Raoultella infections, as well as the impact of advancements in identification techniques on the reported cases. Raoultella spp. may be more underdiagnosed than considered rare or emerging pathogens.

A 5-Year Retrospective Analysis of Raoultella planticola Bacteriuria

Sai Vikram Alampoondi Venkataramanan et al.

Summary: This study identified 37 cases of UTI caused by Raoultella planticola over a 5-year period, with a mean patient age of 77 years. The most common comorbidity was diabetes mellitus, and common presenting complaints were altered mental status and fever. Resistance to ampicillin was high in isolates, with some also being multidrug-resistant but susceptible to ciprofloxacin. The severity of infection ranged from simple cystitis to septic shock, but there were no mortalities in the cohort.
