Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a coagulase-negative, Gram-positive coccus recognized as a common cause of urinary tract infections in young women. It forms characteristic clusters of cells and inhabits human and animal skin, mucous membranes, and the periurethral area. This opportunistic pathogen is commensal under normal conditions but can colonize the urinary tract.
