Abstract Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPn) is a leading cause of healthcare-associated infections in adults in low- and middle-income countries. We conducted laboratory-based surveillance between 2023 and 2024 in Johannesburg, South Africa, and analysed 508 KPn whole genomes isolated from blood and cerebrospinal fluid cultures of hospitalised adults. We investigated the key antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles in invasive KPn isolates, and plasmid-mediated AMR.

1 Introduction Mucormycosis is a rare, angio-invasive fungal infection which is caused by Mucorales species, predominantly Rhizopus, Mucor, and Lichtheimia species, which typically affect immunocompromised patients, including recipients of solid organ transplants (SOT) [1]. Reported cases often result in mortality due to rapid dissemination and vascular invasion [2-4]. Cases of mucormycosis post kidney transplant (KT) are very uncommon in children [5-7].
