Surgery
- Prior to the 1980s, nephrectomy was the standard treatment for pyonephrosis.[1]
- Presently, interventional procedures are required to drain the pus in pyonephrosis.
- Drainage of the pus can be done through either retrograde catheterization (placing a catheter in the ureter) or antegrade decompression through percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement
- Retrograde decompression is a minimally invasive procedure that requires placement of catheter in ureters. It is performed under general anesthesia and is contraindicated in hemodynamically unstable patients. Ureteric stenting is a good option for drainage of pus.[2]
- Percutaneous nephrostomy catheter placement is done when patient is hemodynamically unstable
