ABSTRACT = {Corynebacterium urealyticum is an organism associated 
with a rare chronic urinary tract infection, which can 
lead to calcification of the urinary tract and promote rapid 
lithogenesis. This case illustrates the serious complications 
that can arise from chronic infection with C. urealyticum, which include rapid progression of luminal and parenchymal 
urinary tract calcification and concomitant renal failure. 
This case and a review of the literature demonstrate the 
need for an increased awareness of this organism with early 
identification, aggressive management, and test of cure that 
may help avoid the sequela of these infections.},
