Staphylococcus epidermidis as a cause of urinary tract infections in children.

D E Hall1, J A Snitzer.   

Abstract

We describe two otherwise healthy children with pyelonephritis caused by Staphylococcus epidermidis. We conclude that S. epidermidis can be a urinary tract pathogen in children without indwelling catheters or other obvious medical problems. Physicians should not automatically assume that S. epidermidis is a contaminant in urine cultures.
