Abstract: | Gardnerella vaginalis in women causes vaginitis or infections in other sites, such as the urinary tract, but is an infrequent cause of bacteremia. Bacteremia in men is very rare and is typically associated with immunocompromised states. Here we describe G. vaginalis bacteremia in a previously healthy man with renal calculi and urosepsis. |
