    Abstract:
    (Objectives) We report the clinical features about polymicrobial bacteria detection cases in the uncomplicated urinary tract infection of the premenopausal woman from the voided midstream urine culture. (Methods) We retrospectively reviewed the premenopausal woman from 18-49 years patients visited Sendai City Hospital from April, 2006 to December, 2014, diagnosed uncomplicated cystitis or uncomplicated pyelonephritis. We analyzed for 375 specimens from the voided midstream urine culture. (Results) Among 375 specimens, the urine culture-positive for uropathogens were 211 specimens. The monomicrobial bacterial were detected in 184 specimens (87.2%) and polymicrobial bacterial specimens were 27 specimens (12.8%). The most combination group was the caused bacteria and periurethral microorganisms in 20 specimens (74.1%). Then 6 periurethral microorganisms specimens (22.2%), the caused bacteria were only 1 specimen was overlapped (3.7%). The case of urinary tract infections recurrence or revealed voiding dysfunction that need periodic treatment were more prevalent in the polymicrobial than the monomicrobial group (22.2% vs 9.8%, p=0.043). (Conclusions) When polymicrobial bacteria were detected in uncomplicated urinary tract infection in premenopausal woman, it was confirmed that there were the most combinations of caused bacteria and periurethral microorganisms. In these cases, treatment intended for only the caused bacteria. A risk of the infection recurrence and voiding dysfunction were statistically significant higher rate in the polymicrobial bacteria detection cases, and it might be necessary to consider that search to complicated urinary tract infection.
