Overview

Differential Diagnosis

Urinary Tract Infection

Serratia urinary tract infection (UTI) must be differentiated from other causes of abdominal discomfort, dysuria, hematuria, pyuria, and/or polyuria, such as:

  • Other causes of UTI

Pneumonia

Serratia pneumonia must be differentiated from other causes of fever, chest pain, productive cough, dyspnea, and blood per sputum, such as:

  • Other infectious causes of pneumonia:
  • Streptococcus spp.
  • Staphylococcus spp.
  • Anaerobes
  • Chlamydia spp.
  • E. coli
  • Haemophilus spp.
  • Acinetobacter spp.
  • Legionella spp.
  • Tuberculosis or non-tuberculous Mycobacterium spp. (e.g. MAC)
  • Mycoplasma spp.
  • Moraxella spp.
  • Pseudomonas spp.
  • Fungal infections (e.g. Candida, Aspergillus)
  • Pneumocystis pneumoniae infection
  • Viral pneumonia (e.g. influenza, parainfluenza, VZV, HSV, RSV, CMV, adenovirus, metapneumovirus, coronavirus, measles)
  • Atypical infections (Q-fever, tularemia, psittacosis)
  • Bronchiolitis
  • Epiglottitis
  • Asthma
  • Interstitial lung disease
  • Respiratory distress syndrome
  • Atelectasis

  • Yersinia spp.
  • Klebsiella spp.
  • Campylobacter spp.
  • Acinetobacter spp.
  • Clostridium spp.
  • Proteus spp.
  • Pseudomonas spp.
  • Anaerobes
  • Fungal infections (e.g. Candida, histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, coccidiomycosis)
  • Parasitic infections (e.g. Amoebiasis, giardiasis, Cryptosporidium)
  • Peritonitis
  • Familial Mediterranean fever
  • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Celiac disease
  • Meckel's diverticulum

  • Vasculitis (E.g. Henoch-Schonlein purpura, systemic lupus erythematosus, polyarteritis nodosa)
  • Appendicitis
  • Ischemic colitis
  • Portal or mesenteric vein thrombosis
  • Abdominal abscess
  • Abdominal obstrucction
  • Volvolus
  • Intussusception

  • Pancreatitis, pancreatic pseudocyst, pancreatic abscess or pancreatic cancer
  • Cholecystitis or cholangitis
  • Diverticulitis
  • Pelvic inflammatory disease
  • Pregnancy
  • Endometritis
  • Sarcoidosis

Meningitis / Cerebral Abscess

Serratia meningitis / cerebral abscess must be differentiated from other causes of headache, fever, and altered mental status, such as:

Endocarditis

Serratia endocarditis must be differentiated from other causes of fever, petechiae, and abnormal heart murmurs, such as:

  • Other causes of infectious endocarditis

HEENT Infections

Serratia HEENT infections must be differentiated from other causes of eye infections (e.g. keratitis, endophthalmitis, and conjunctivitis), parotitis, or otitis, such as:

Soft Tissue Infections
