Bir köpeğin idrar yolu infeksiyonunda saptanan Acinetobacter baumannii ve Streptococcus canis

Nozokomiyal infeksiyonlar insan hastanelerinin ana problemlerinden birini oluşturmasına rağmen, son döneme kadar veteriner hekimliğinde fazla dikkat edilmemiştir. İstanbul Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı’na 1 yaşlı Kangal ırkı köpek idrar yapmada zorlanma ve idrarda kan bulunması şikayetleri ile getirildi. Yapılan klinik muayene, kan, idrar tahlilleri ve idrardan yapılan bakteriyolojik kültür sonucunda Acinetobacter baumannii ve Streptococcus canis’in neden olduğu idrar yolu infeksiyonu teşhisi konuldu. Bu olgu sunumunun amacı, son dönemde veteriner hekimliğinde de görülmeye başlayan asinetobakterlerin idrar yolu infeksiyonlarında göz önünde tutulmasını sağlamaktır.
