Overview
Most risk factors of pyelonephritis are similar to those for cystitis and urethritis, since they themselves predispose the individual to pyelonephritis. Common risk factors in the development of pyelonephritis include renal calculi, urinary tract catheterization, pregnancy, diabetes mellitus, and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Risk Factors
Risk is increased in the following situations:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Mechanical/Anatomical
Any structural abnormalities of the kidneys and the urinary tract can lead to abnormal accumulation of bacteria that can reach the renal parenchyma to cause pyelonephritis.
- Kidney stones or calculi
- Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) abnormal backward flow or reflux of urine, can occur post surgically
- Posterior urethral valve
- Pregnancy
- Urinary tract catheterization or stents
- Drainage procedures (e.g. nephrostomy)
- Prostate disease (e.g. benign prostatic hyperplasia) in men
- Polycystic Kidney
- Bladder neck obstruction
- Horseshoe kidney
- Ureterocele
- Neuropathic bladder (e.g. spinal cord damage, spina bifida or multiple sclerosis)
- Incontinence
Foreign Body
Other Conditions
- Cystitis
- Urethritis
- Prostatitis
- Diabetes mellitus
- Immunocompromised states
- Sickle cell disease
- Transplantation
- Pregnancy
- HIV
- Chemotherapy
General risk factors
- Change in sexual partner within the last year
- Spermicide use
- Decreased expression of CXCR1 (a receptor for IL-8)
- Genetic predisposition
- Positive family history (close family members with frequent urination)
- Young women (reflecting sexual activity in that age group)
- Infants with anatomical abnormalities and elderly with hormonal abnormalities[9]
