case_images: Chest CT on the 5th day of admission, showing multiple nodular and patchy high-density opacities in both lungs, with ill-defined margins, some of which are associated with cavitation. The red arrow indicates a cavity.

case_images: However, the chest CT showed multiple infections in both lungs with cavitation formation. (Figure 1).
case_images: Abdominal CT on the 5th day of admission, showing a low-density lesion measuring approximately 30x18 mm in the right liver, with ill-defined borders, suggestive of a possible abscess. The red arrow indicates a liver abscess.

case_images: The abdominal CT revealed a faintly hypodense shadow on the liver (Figure 2), isointense foci in the posterior prostate area of the bladder, and multiple instances of pneumoperitoneum (Figure 3).
case_images: On the 5th day of admission, pelvic CT revealed multiple gas accumulations in the prostate area, suggestive of a possible emphysematous prostatic abscess. The red arrow indicates gas accumulation in the prostate region.

case_images: The abdominal CT revealed a faintly hypodense shadow on the liver (Figure 2), isointense foci in the posterior prostate area of the bladder, and multiple instances of pneumoperitoneum (Figure 3).
case_images: Cranial CT on the 9th day of admission showing sheet-like low-density shadows in the left frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes of the skull indicative of multiple brain abscesses, The red arrow indicates a brain abscess.

case_images: Cranial CT imaging revealed new patchy low-density areas in the left frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes, indicative of brain abscesses (Figure 4).
case_images: On the 10th day of admission, the left eye exhibited a fluorescent green appearance.

case_images: Our analysis identified the strain as hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae of K1/ST1265, harboring a plasmid carrying virulence genes, including rmpA2, iutA, iucC, and iucA (Figure 6).
case_images: The in vivo virulence of XLS-B(ST1265) through Galleria mellonella infection model. The virulence was determined by the survival rates of G. mellonella infected with the bacteria (1x106 CFU/mL) and the control group was injected with phosphate buffered saline.
