摘要：
Multidrug-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR-hvKP) combines high pathogenicity with multidrug resistance to become a new superbug. MDR-hvKP reports continue to emerge, shattering the perception that hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKP) strains are antibiotic sensitive. Patients infected with MDR-hvKP strains have been reported in Asia, particularly China. Although hvKP can acquire drug resistance genes, MDR-hvKP seems to be more easily transformed from classical K. pneumoniae (cKP), which has a strong gene uptake ability. To better understand the biology of MDR-hvKP, this review discusses the virulence factors, resistance mechanisms, formation pathways, and identification of MDR-hvKP. Given their destructive and transmissible potential, continued surveillance of these organisms and enhanced control measures should be prioritized.
