Klebsiella pneumoniae, found in the gastrointestinal flora is a causative agent of hospital-acquired infections. Although isolated organ infections are common, reports of multi-system involvement are rare. We report on a susceptible patient presenting with disseminated Klebsiella infection with concurrent multi-organ disease involving the lung, liver, prostate and eye. He recovered after prolonged therapy but suffered from permanent sequalae. Early diagnosis and aggressive therapy is facilitated by awareness and a high degree of suspicion in at-risk patient groups.
