About Klebsiella cystitis.

Klebsiella cystitis is an acute or recurrent bacterial infection of the lower urinary tract localized to the urinary bladder and caused by members of the Gram-negative genus *Klebsiella*, most commonly *Klebsiella pneumoniae*.

Although it can occur as an uncomplicated community-acquired infection in ambulatory individuals, it disproportionately affects hospitalized patients, catheterized individuals, older adults, and populations with structural urinary tract abnormalities or immunocompromising conditions.

Pathophysiologically, the encapsulated pathogen ascends from gastrointestinal and perineal reservoirs to colonize the uroepithelium, triggering mucosal inflammation.

Clinically, it manifests with lower urinary tract symptoms, including dysuria, urinary frequency, urgency, and suprapubic pain, frequently accompanied by pyuria and bacteriuria on urinalysis and culture.
