“…Seasonal variation was observed by several investigators [15] and S. saprophyticus UTI is more frequent during late summer and fall [17]. The probable explanation for this phenomenon is that this microorganism colonizes the human gastrointestinal tract particularly during the gastroenteritis season of summer and fall.…”

“…The gastrointestinal tract is the major reservoir for S. saprophyticus. In an early study Latham et al [17] noted that rectal, vaginal and urethral colonization with S. saprophyticus was associated with UTI caused by this pathogen. In our study, during a 2-6 month follow-up, S. saprophyticus was not isolated from any urogenital/ rectal and nose samples in all patients.…”

“…The gastrointestinal tract is the major reservoir of S. saprophyticus. In an early study, Latham et al [19] noted that rectal, vaginal, and urethral colonization of S. saprophyticus was associated with UTI caused by this organism. Rupp et al [18] determined that the prevalence of colonization of S. saprophyticus of the urogenital tract among healthy women was 6.9%; the most common site of colonization was the rectum (40%).…”

“…La colonisation rectale, vaginale et urétrale par S. saprophyticus était associée aux IU dues à ce micro-organisme [24]. À noter que le site de colonisation le plus fréquent est le rectum (40 %) [25].…”

“…Cela suggère que les spermicides vaginaux interfèrent avec la flore vaginale normale et favorisent la colonisation par S. saprophyticus. Ces observations sont en accord avec de nombreuses études cliniques [2,12,24,28] dans lesquelles les IU liées à S. saprophyticus sont associées avec des rapports sexuels récents et apparaissent plus souvent à la fin de l'été et au début de l'automne [14]. Physiopathologie S. saprophyticus semble avoir une plus grande capacité à adhérer spécifiquement aux cellules uroépithéliales que les Tableau 1 Évolution au cours des années de la proportion des espèces bactériennes impliquées dans les infections urinaires basses en France [10].…”
