title: [Nosocomial infections of the urinary tract by Proteus rettgeri (author's transl)].
abstract: Out of urine samples from 170 male patients strains of the genus Proteus with atypical biochemical characteristics and extensive corresponding multiresistance were isolated. Their significance as causative agents in urinary tract infection looks to be established as well as their ability of transfer by cross infection. Because of this we are concerned with the epidemiological occurrence of a special biotype of Proteus rettgeri as a causative agent in urinary tract infections.
