Abstract
&NA; Streptococcus pneumoniae is not a usual agent of urinary tract infections. We report here two cases of urinary tract infections occurred in pediatrics patients with vesicoureteral reflux and renal stones. It becomes essential to consider pneumococcal UTI in the presence of clinical signs and symptoms associated co-existing predisposing factors.
