species (spp.) are gram-positive cocci that are rarely reported in humans. These bacteria share physiological, cultural, and biochemical properties with spp. Recently, they have garnered attention as potential opportunistic pathogens capable of causing infections in individuals with predisposing factors and comorbidities. Human infections are sporadic, with only a few cases reported worldwide. A multidisciplinary microbiological approach is essential for the successful identification of these organisms. Antibiotic sensitivity is critical for effective treatment, especially considering that spp. not only were recently discovered but are also developing resistance to several antibiotics, as confirmed by the available literature, including the present case where the organism was found to be pan-drug resistant. Clinicians should be aware of these bacteria and consider them as emerging opportunistic pathogens. We report the case of a 56-year-old male with grade III hydronephrosis, urolithiasis, and a UTI, in which was isolated from the patient's urine specimen.
种(spp.)是革兰氏阳性球菌,在人类中很少有报道。这些细菌与 种具有共同的生理、培养和生化特性。最近,它们作为能够在有易感因素和合并症的个体中引起感染的潜在机会性病原体而受到关注。人类感染是散发性的,全球仅报道了少数病例。多学科微生物学方法对于成功鉴定这些微生物至关重要。抗生素敏感性对于有效治疗至关重要,特别是考虑到 种不仅是最近才发现的,而且正如现有文献所证实的那样,它们对几种抗生素也产生了耐药性,包括本病例中发现该微生物对多种药物耐药的情况。临床医生应了解这些细菌,并将它们视为新兴的机会性病原体。我们报告了一例56岁男性患者,患有III级肾积水、尿路结石和尿路感染,从患者的尿液标本中分离出了 。
