Abstract

Introduction: commonly causes upper respiratory tract infections and has only rarely been reported etiology of urinary tract infections. Since the introduction of the b (Hib) vaccine, non-typable species now cause the majority of invasive disease in Europe.

Case Report: We report a case of an adult man with non-typable septicemia, urinary tract infection and bilateral renal stone disease. The patient presented with right sided flank pain and a CT scan showed bilateral renal stones and a right sided ureteral stone causing obstruction.

Results And Discussion: was identified in blood and urine and despite a tendency of increasing antibiotic resistance among , our strain was susceptible to all antibiotics tested. Treatment consisted of 3 days of intravenous cefuroxime, insertion of a right sided JJ ureteric stent and 5 days of peroral ciprofloxacin after discharge. Physicians and microbiologists should be aware of as a possible urinary tract pathogen, especially when urinary tract abnormalities are present, and take the risk of antibiotic resistance into consideration at initial treatment.
