Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, University of Kansas, Kanas City, KS, USA.
A 55-year-old-male with a chronic left uretero-pelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction managed with intermittent stent exchanges presented with low midline back pain. CT Abdomen/Pelvis revealed spondylodiscitis at L4-L5, further demonstrated on MRI Lumbar spine. Imaging also revealed the left nephro-ureteral stent was mispositioned, with some mild wall thickening of the left ureter.

Small colony variant (SCV) is strongly linked to antibiotic resistance and the persistence of osteomyelitis. However, the intrinsic phenotypic instability of SCV has hindered a thorough investigation of its pathogenic mechanisms. In this study, phenotypically stable SCV strains are successfully recovered from clinical specimens, characterized by elevated drug resistance and reduced immunogenicity.
