Abstract:
Struvite stones are caused by urea-splitting, usually gram-negative, organisms. A case of aggressive struvite stone production caused by Corynebacterium group F1 is reported that responded to the appropriate antibiotic treatment. To our knowledge this organism has never been associated previously with struvite stone formation.
