Background: In two patients under treatment with various antibiotics, spheroplasts were detected with an automated urine sediment analyzer.
Methods: Urinalysis was performed by an AutionMAX AX 4030-sediMAX platform.
Results: Spheroplasts can be easily misclassified as yeasts or erythrocytes, but when automated urine sediment analyzers are used by well-trained, and experienced operators they can be correctly identified and classified.

Institute of Microbiology and Parasitology, Veterinary Faculty, Ljubljana, Slovenia.
Cystic forms (also called spheroplasts or starvation forms) and their ability to reconvert into normal motile spirochetes have already been demonstrated in the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex. The aim of this study was to determine whether motile B. garinii could develop from cystic forms, not only in vitro but also in vivo, in cyst-inoculated mice.
