| ABSTRACT |
|
Shigella infection usually produces gastrointestinal symptoms but rarely causes urinary tract infection. A 7-year-old girl was admitted for fever, chills, right flank pain, and dysuria. She had no vomiting or diarrhea. There was mild tenderness in her right lower abdomen, and right CVA tenderness was also noted. Acute pyelonephritis was diagnosed by abdominal CT. She showed improvement with intravenous administration of antibiotics. The first urine culture grew 1 x 10(5) CFU/mL Shigella dysenteri. Although urinary tract infections due to Shigella species are extremely rare, Shigella species should be considered as a possible cause of pediatric urinary tract infection. We report the first case of urinary tract infection caused by S. dysenteri, which presented as acute pyelonephritis without gastrointestinal symptoms in a child. |
