Enterobacteriaceae and E.coli were known to be the most common cause of UTI. Methods: This study was conducted on 328 patients with UTI and pyuria (>10 leukocytes/ml) in Razi diagnostic medical laboratory in Babol during a period of 5 months. Midstream was collected for culture. Findings: Of total patients 182 were due to E.coli (13% male and 87% female) and 146 due to other uropathogenic strains (21% male and 79% female).
