Botryomycosis is a chronic bacterial infection characterized histologically by granules containing bacteria in microabscesses. Although Staphylococcus aureus is the most common causative agent, other bacteria have been reported to cause botryomycosis. Several factors have been hypothesized to be important in the pathogenesis of botryomycosis including foreign bodies, quantity and virulence of bacterial microorganisms and host immunity. We report a case of renal botryomycosis in a 60 year-old woman. The diagnosis was based on clinical findings of Escherichia coli urinary infection, histological findings of granules and immunohistologic findings of anti-Escherichia coli granules staining. This is the seventh reported case of renal botryomycosis.
葡萄状菌病是一种慢性细菌感染，组织学特征为微脓肿内含有细菌的颗粒。虽然金黄色葡萄球菌是最常见的病原体，但据报道其他细菌也可引起葡萄状菌病。有几种因素被认为在葡萄状菌病的发病机制中很重要，包括异物、细菌微生物的数量和毒力以及宿主免疫力。我们报告一例60岁女性的肾葡萄状菌病病例。诊断基于大肠杆菌尿路感染的临床表现、颗粒的组织学表现以及抗大肠杆菌颗粒染色的免疫组织学表现。这是第七例报告的肾葡萄状菌病病例。
