Background: Staphylococcus aureus is the most common pathogen in suppurative infection, which can cause local suppurative infection, pneumonia, etc. A case of double renal calculi complicated with chronic renal insufficiency and mucinous Staphylococcus aureus infection was analyzed and discussed.
Methods: Bacterial culture, identification, and next-generation sequencing.
Results: The mucous colony was identified as Staphylococcus aureus, and the condition improved after symptomatic treatment.
Conclusions: Mucinous Staphylococcus is a rare clinical microorganism, which needs to be verified by experiments to avoid false negative results. Genetic sequencing is used to identify strains if necessary.
