The genitourinary actinomycosis is a zoonotic kidney disease caused mainly by bovine actinomycetes. Actinomycetes can cause actinomycosis of the colon or abdomen through the digestive tract, and can spread directly to the kidneys and bladder. Sometimes it can invade the testis, epididymis, penis, prostate, etc. by blood line.
