Abstract
We present a rare case of pulmonary-renal syndrome secondary to recurrent MRSA spondylodiscitis. The mechanism of involvement of each organ system is unique. The organs, lung and kidneys, have been affected by different pathologic processes that were induced, we think, by the chronic MRSA infection.
