Cystitis cystica secondary to resistant Corynebacterium D2 urine infection presented with dysuria and alkaline urine. Treatment with vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, and hydroxinamic acid showed a good response in these cases.

Area of Science:

Urology
Infectious Diseases
Microbiology

Background:

Cystitis cystica is a rare condition often associated with chronic urinary tract infections.
Resistant bacterial strains pose a significant challenge in treating urinary tract infections.

Observation:

Two patients presented with symptoms of cystitis cystica, including severe dysuria and urinary frequency.
Clinical observations included alkaline urine pH levels of 8 and 9.
Urine cultures identified a resistant strain of Corynebacterium D2 as the causative agent.

Findings:

The identified Corynebacterium D2 strain demonstrated resistance to standard antimicrobial agents.
Successful treatment was achieved using a combination of vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, and hydroxinamic acid.

Patients showed a positive clinical response to the prescribed antimicrobial regimen.

Implications:

This case study highlights the importance of identifying resistant pathogens in urinary tract infections.
The combination therapy proved effective, suggesting a potential treatment strategy for similar resistant infections.
Further research into managing Corynebacterium D2 urinary tract infections is warranted.
