Abstract

Infections with non-O1 non-O139 Vibro cholerae strains have been reported to affect different extra intestinal sites including the urinary tract infection. We report the first case of UTI due to Vibrio albensis in an immunocompetent patient from Lebanon, where the organism was also recovered from water at his home.
