Abstract:
Ureaplasma spp. usually causes genitourinary infections; few reports in the literature describe extragenital infections, usually in immunocompromised patients. We present a case of Ureaplasma parvum ventriculitis in an immunocompetent patient related to ventriculoperitoneal drainage and surgery. Ureaplasma parvum was detected with broad range 16S rRNA PCR and cultured on A8 agar.
