Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a common cause of acute urinary tract infection (UTI) in young women. Septicemia has not been reported in patients without signs of immunodeficiency. We report 2 such cases in previously healthy 19- and 33-year-old women. Thus, this microbe may give rise to invasive infection and should be considered when coagulase-negative staphylococci are isolated from blood cultures in patients with symptoms of UTI.
腐生葡萄球菌是年轻女性急性尿路感染（UTI）的常见病因。在没有免疫缺陷迹象的患者中，尚未有败血症的报道。我们报告了2例这样的病例，患者为两名此前健康的19岁和33岁女性。因此，这种微生物可能会引发侵袭性感染，当从有UTI症状患者的血培养中分离出凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌时，应考虑到这一点。
