Abstract

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a rare and severe chronic inflammatory condition of the kidney. XGP's exact etiology remains unclear, although it is frequently associated with chronic urinary obstruction and infections within the urinary tract. Superinfections such as Escherichiacoli, Proteusmirabilis, and occasionally Pseudomonas species typically cause XGP. Documented cases of Raoultellaornithinolytica (R.ornithinolytica) infections in humans, particularly within the urinary tract, are limited. However, advancements in diagnostic techniques are expected to increase the detection of such rare pathogens. To the best of our knowledge, currently, there is no evidence in the literature indicating that this pathogen is responsible for XGP. We present a case of XGP in which we isolated R.ornithinolytica and discuss its treatment in the current literature.

罕见病原体溶鸟劳氏菌所致黄色肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎1例。
黄色肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎(XGP)是一种罕见且严重的肾脏慢性炎症。XGP的确切病因尚不清楚,尽管它经常与慢性尿路梗阻和尿路感染有关。超级感染如大肠杆菌、奇异变形杆菌和偶尔的假单胞菌通常会引起XGP。有文献记载的人类,特别是尿路内的溶鸟毒拉乌尔氏菌感染病例有限。然而,诊断技术的进步有望增加对这种罕见病原体的检测。据我们所知,目前文献中没有证据表明这种病原体是XGP的罪魁祸首。我们提出了一例XGP,其中我们分离了鸟毒杆菌,并在目前的文献中讨论了其治疗。
