May 28, 2020 Since its first classification, Aerococcus urinae has emerged as a human pathogen capable of causing urinary tract infections (UTI), as well as more invasive infections, including bacteremia, 1,2 endocarditis, 3,4 septicemia 5 and necrotizing soft tissue infections. 6-8 We became particularly interested in A. urinae as a member of the urinary microbiota—the polymicrobial

Results: A total of 20 Aerococcus spp. isolates were identified over the study period of 9 years. Of these, Aerococcus urinae was isolated in 10 (50%), Aerococcus viridans in 6 (30%), and Aerococcus spp. (not speciated) in 4 (20%). The median age was 74.3 years (12 males and 8 females). The two most frequent presentations were fever (15 of 20) and altered mentation (6 of 15).

Hilt EE, Putonti C, Thomas-White K,Lewis AL, Visick KL, Gilbert NM, Wolfe AJ. 2020.Aerococcus urinaeisolated from women withlower urinary tract symptoms:in vitroaggregation and genome analysis. Many bacteria that we have detected in women with LUTS are understudied precisely because they were previously undetected or overlooked. Thus, very little is known about their pathogenesis. Aerococcus urinae is one of those understudied uropathogenic bacteria. It is associated with both UTI and UI. Aerococcus urinae is a rarely reported pathogen, possibly due to difﬁculties in the identiﬁcation of the organism. A. urinae is a gram-positive coccus that grows in pairs and clusters, produces alpha-hemolysis on blood agar, and is negative for catalase and pyrrolidonyl aminopeptidase.

Its genus was first described in 1953, with the first reported case of A. urinae in a human described in 1992 [ 1, 2 ].

Classification. Aerococcus urinae is a member of the bacterial genus Aerococcus.The bacterium is a Gram-positive, catalase-negative coccus growing in clusters.

Aerococcus urinae is an uncommon urinary tract pathogen that causes infections predominantly in elderly persons with local or general predisposing conditions. During a one-year study, the clinical features ofAerococcus urinae urinary tract infections (≥105 cfu/ml) were investigated in two large medical microbiology laboratories in the Netherlands.

Only sixteen cases of A. urinae endocarditis have yet been described. Generally, patients were males with predisposing conditions and the outcomes were bad. We describe the first Belgian case of endocarditis due to A. urinae.

This organism is closely related to Aerococcus viridans (which is usually PYR positive and LAP negative). In 1992, it was given its own unique classification. Aerococci occur naturally in dust, air, vegetation, and hospital environments.

A. urinae shares features with staphylococci, streptococci and enterococci as the bacterium grows in clusters, displays a-haemolysis when grown on blood agar, and is resistant to sulphonamide. We report here, a case study of A. urinae, which initially was misdiagnosed. May 28, 2020 Since its first classification, Aerococcus urinae has emerged as a human pathogen capable of causing urinary tract infections (UTI), as well as more invasive infections, including bacteremia, 1,2 endocarditis, 3,4 septicemia 5 and necrotizing soft tissue infections. 6-8 We became particularly interested in A. urinae as a member of the urinary microbiota—the polymicrobial The bacterium was later named Aerococcus urinae [ 2 ]. This organism was subsequently reported in urinary infections in The Netherlands and the USA [ 3, 4 ], and it was noted that serious complications in the form of septicemia and endocarditis may arise from such infections [ 5, 6 ].

En annan var Aerococcus urinae, vilket kan orsaka urin- och hjärtinfektioner, särskilt hos äldre. Medicinska forskare är mycket glada över att studera

Its normal habitat remains unclear.
