Abstract
Dada la importancia de la correcta validación clínica de los aislamientos de Streptococcus bovis, nos planteamos la revisión de su presencia en muestras de orina con el objetivo de conocer su frecuencia relativa y su patrón de sensibilidad antibiótica. Se revisó retrospectivamente la sensibilidad a los antibióticos de 91 aislados de S. bovis recuperados de muestras de orina durante un período de 4 anos ˜ (2012-2015). La media de la edad de los pacientes fue de 55 anos ˜ y en su mayoría fueron mujeres (81%). El 37,4% eran pacientes hospitalizados con enfermedades urológicas (61%). La sensibilidad a penicilina, vancomicina y teicoplanina fue del 97,8%. Aunque S. bovis puede ser poco común en los aislamientos de orina, su presencia en sujetos con enfermedades de base justifica la realización de estudios de patogenicidad que demuestren la verdadera capacidad de producir enfermedad de este grupo de bacterias.
Given the relevance of proper clinical validation of Streptococcus bovis, we here consider revising its presence in urine samples in order to determine its relative frequency and the pattern of antibiotic susceptibility. The susceptibility to antibiotics of 91 isolates of S. bovis from urine samples was retrospectively reviewed over a period of 4 years (2012-2015). The mean age of patients was 55 years, 81% of whom were women and 37.4% were hospitalized patients suffering from urological diseases (61%). Susceptibility to penicillin, vancomycin and teicoplanin was 97.8%. Due to the fact that S. bovis can be infrequent in urine isolates and given its presence in patients suffering from urological diseases, further pathogenic studies, showing the true ability of this group of bacteria to produce disease, are required.
