Abstract

Aim: To investigate the incidence of microorganisms of different taxonomic groups and their associations in the pelvic and bladder urine of adult urolithiasis patients.

Materials and methods: A bacteriological method and metagenomic sequencing were used to investigate the bacterial spectrum of microflora cultured from pelvic and bladder urine sampled during surgical interventions in urolithiasis patients.

Results: The both microbiotas had approximately the same spectrum, but in 26.1% of patients it was inconsistent. Metagenomic analysis detected DNA of microorganisms in urine samples which were found free of microflora by the bacteriological method.

Conclusion: The study findings showed species diversity of microorganisms cultured from pelvic and bladder urine sampled during surgical interventions in urolithiasis patients.

Keywords: bacteriological study of urine; metagenomic analysis; microbial spectrum of urine; urolithiasis.
