Clostridium perfringens bacteremia is an uncommon yet serious clinical syndrome that typically arises from a gastrointestinal source.
However, clinicians should consider nongastrointestinal sources as well.
We present a rare case of C.
perfringens bacteremia of urinary origin that required surgical intervention for definitive treatment.
A 61-year-old male presented with acute nausea and vomiting, altered mental status, and chronic diarrhea.
His physical exam revealed right costovertebral tenderness and his laboratory work-up revealed acute renal failure.
Percutaneous blood cultures grew C.
perfringens.
Cross-sectional imaging revealed a right-sided ureteral stone with hydronephrosis, which required nephrostomy placement.
On placement of the nephrostomy tube, purulent drainage was identified and Gram stain of the drainage revealed Gram-variable rods.
A urinary source of C.
perfringens was clinically supported.
Although it is not a common presentation, nongastrointestinal sources such as a urinary source should be considered in C.
perfringens bacteremia because failure to recognize a nongastrointestinal source can delay appropriate treatment, which may include surgical intervention.
