Staphylococcus saprophyticus Bacteremia originating from Urinary Tract Infections: A Case Report and Literature Review
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a common pathogen of acute urinary tract infection (UTI) in young females. However, S. saprophyticus bacteremia originating from UTI is very rare and has not been reported in Korea. We report a case of S. saprophyticus bacteremia from UTI in a 60-year-old female with a urinary stone treated successfully with intravenous ciprofloxacin, and review the cases of S. s...
متن کاملLeuconostoc pseudomesenteroides as a cause of nosocomial urinary tract infections.
The phenotypic and genotypic characterization of five clinical isolates of Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides associated with nosocomially acquired urinary tract infections is described. All the strains were susceptible to chloramphenicol, clindamycin, erythromycin, gentamicin, and tetracycline; all were resistant to nalidixic acid, norfloxacin, and vancomycin; and all were intermediately affected...
متن کاملTime-based distribution of Staphylococcus saprophyticus pulsed field gel-electrophoresis clusters in community-acquired urinary tract infections
The epidemiology of urinary tract infections (UTI) by Staphylococcus saprophyticus has not been fully characterised and strain typing methods have not been validated for this agent. To evaluate whether epidemiological relationships exist between clusters of pulsed field gel-electrophoresis (PFGE) genotypes of S. saprophyticus from community-acquired UTI, a cross-sectional surveillance study was...
متن کاملUrinary tract infection in young women, with special reference to Staphylococcus saprophyticus.

Staphylococcus saprophyticus biotype 3 (formerly called Micrococcus subgroup 3) was the commonest organism after coliform bacilli and caused about 30% of the infections. It was uncommon in...
متن کاملIncidence of novobiocin resistant coagulase negative staphylococcus saprophyticus in urinary tract infection in UITH, Ilorin, Nigeria
Coagulase negative Staphylococcus has long been considered of little significance as a urinary tract infection. The role of novobiocin resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus saprophyticus in infection of the urinary tract of women of childbearing age (14-40 years; mean age = 27 years; outpatients) was investigated. Three hundred female patients between the age bracket of 14 and 40 years (m...
