Gas-producing renal infection presenting as pneumaturia: A case report

Abstract

We present a case of persistent pneumaturia of one-year duration in a fifty-five-year-old male with a history of spinal cord injury. The evaluation demonstrated gas throughout the collecting system attributable to a urinary tract infection with a gas-forming organism, Klebsiella pneumoniae. © 2013 Youssef S. Tanagho et al.
