Cellulitis-adenitis syndrome is rarely diagnosed in the neonatal period and generally associated with group B streptococci infection. We present the first report of cellulitis-adenitis syndrome of the axilla due to Klebsiella oxytoca in a premature infant. Therefore, empiric antibiotic treatment for cellulitis-adenitis syndrome in the neonatal period should include antibiotics that act against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
