Coming soonA *Proteus* urinary tract infection is an infection of the urinary tract—most commonly manifesting as cystitis, catheter-associated infection, or pyelonephritis—caused by bacteria of the genus *Proteus*, predominantly *Proteus mirabilis*.
It frequently affects individuals with long-term indwelling urinary catheters, functional or structural urinary tract abnormalities, neurogenic bladder, or recurrent urologic interventions.
A defining pathophysiologic feature is the organism's potent urease production, which hydrolyzes urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide.
This reaction markedly alkalizes the urine, precipitating magnesium ammonium phosphate and calcium phosphate, which promotes urinary crystal encrustation, the formation of struvite renal calculi (infection stones), and extensive biofilm development.
