RESUMO
Emphysematous pyelonephritis is a rare, life endangering suppurative infection of the renal parenchyma and perirenal spaces. The disease is encountered mainly in patients with diabetes mellitus and is characterized by the production of intrarenal and, occasionally, perirenal gas. We present 4 cases of emphysematous pyelonephritis encountered in our hospital with review of the literature.

RESUMO
Pigtail drainage often falls to drain thick, infected collections. Percutaneous wide-bore sump drainage has been successfully used in such cases. We report one such case of pancreatic abscess which was successfully managed using an indigenously made percutaneous sump drain.
