Overview
Pyelonephritis is serious condition requiring emergent management.[1]
Natural History
Complications
- Most people with pyelonephritis do not have complications if appropriately treated with bacteria-fighting medications called antibiotics.
- In rare cases, pyelonephritis may cause permanent kidney scars, which can lead to chronic kidney disease, high blood pressure, and kidney failure. These problems usually occur in people with a structural problem in the urinary tract, kidney disease from other causes, or repeated episodes of pyelonephritis.
- sepsis, spread of the infection in the kidneys to the bloodstream
- Renal abscess[2] , 686015, 2651759, 15201757, 4913271, 10102326, 986763, 7039139, 9378929, 7414775, 8126807
- Perinephric abscess is made by cortical staphylococcal renal abscess (Graves RC, Parkins LE. Carbuncle of the kidney. J Urol (Baltimore) 1970; 104:179.) or by rupturing of a renal abscess (Hill GS. Renal infection. In: Uropathology, 1st Ed, Hill GS (Ed), Churchill Livingstone, New York 1989; 33.)[2]
