Popis: Achromobacter xylosoxidans is a microorganism found in the nature, soil and water. It may cause opportunistic infections in immunosuppressed patients. It may lead rarely to urinary system infections in patients with underlying urinary abnormalities. We report a case of urosepsis due to A. xylosoxidans in a 59-year-old female patient having had total bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy seven years ago due to the diagnosis of endometrial clear cell carcinoma.
