| dc.description.abstract | This report documents the first case of Raoultella planticola epididymo-orchitis following campylobacter gastroenteritis in a 76-year-old male. Highlighting R. planticola's expanded pathogenic potential beyond common urinary tract infections, this case emphasizes its clinical significance in atypical genitourinary presentations, particularly in individuals with pre-existing conditions like diabetes mellitus and renal failure. Despite intrinsic ampicillin resistance, targeted ciprofloxacin treatment proved effective. This case underscores the necessity for broad diagnostic considerations and tailored antibiotic therapy in managing complex infections, advocating for increased awareness of emerging resistant uropathogens in clinical practice. � 2024 The Authors | - |
