Abstract
Lactobacilli are part of the normal bacterial flora of the vagina and are typically considered contaminants when cultured from urine specimens of female patients. Here we describe the case of a female patient with chronic pyuria and urinary tract symptoms in which
Lactobacillus delbrueckii
was determined to be the causative microorganism.
