Abstract

Pseudomonas luteola (P. luteola) is rarely reported as a human bacterial pathogen. However, it may cause several serious infections, mainly in immuncompromised patients. We report here the first case of urinary tract infection due to P. luteola and we review, by searching in Pub Med all cases of P. luteola infection.
