Abstract
To our knowledge we report the first case of extensive urethral incrustation to be caused by corynebacterium group D2 infection. The condition was treated effectively by intravenous vancomycin hydrochloride, cystolitholapaxy and urinary acidification with a urease inhibitor, acetohydroxamic acid.
