Coming soonAn Enterobacter infection is an opportunistic bacterial disease caused by members of the genus *Enterobacter*, most notably the *Enterobacter cloacae* complex, which are facultatively anaerobic, Gram-negative bacilli.
Commonly encountered as healthcare-associated pathogens, these organisms primarily affect hospitalized, critically ill, or immunocompromised individuals, frequently involving patients with indwelling devices, central venous catheters, or endotracheal tubes.
Manifestations span multiple organ systems, resulting in catheter-associated urinary tract infections, ventilator-associated pneumonia, surgical site and intra-abdominal infections, and bacteremia or sepsis.
A defining pathophysiologic feature is the pathogen's capacity for multidrug resistance, driven predominantly by inducible chromosomal AmpC beta-lactamases and the potential acquisition of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases or carbapenemases.
