Staphylococcus aureus bacteriuria is a common condition with still largely undetermined clinical relevance. Although S. aureus bacteriuria can be secondary to bacteremia and systemic infection in some patients, it may predispose to bacteremia and invasive disease in others. Whereas most patients with S. aureus bacteriuria do not have symptomatic urinary tract infection, it is reportedly associated with endocarditis and other types of invasive diseases, thereby resulting in major morbidity and occasional mortality. This review summarizes and analyzes the results of previous reports of S. aureus bacteriuria and assesses the clinical relevance and management of this increasingly recognized entity.
金黄色葡萄球菌菌尿症是一种常见病症，但临床相关性仍很大程度上尚未确定。虽然金黄色葡萄球菌菌尿症在某些患者中可能继发于菌血症和全身感染，但在其他患者中可能导致菌血症和侵袭性疾病。虽然大多数金黄色葡萄球菌菌尿症患者没有症状性尿路感染，但据报道，它与心内膜炎和其他类型的侵袭性疾病有关，从而导致严重的发病率和偶尔的死亡率。本综述总结和分析了以前关于金黄色葡萄球菌菌尿症的报告结果，并评估了这一日益被认识到的实体的临床相关性和管理。
