About one observation of an acute Klebsiella pneumoniae tonsillitis

Abstract

Acute angina is mostly viral, but Bacterial angina is mainly related to the group of streptococci (group A beta-hemolytic). Other unusual bacterial strains are sometimes found, which requires an adapted and gradual clinical approach including the use of microbiological diagnostic means. We report an observation of acute angina caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae, an unusual bacterial agent requiring an appropriate response.
