ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The therapeutic approach to patients with emphysematous pyelonephritis long has been a debatable issue. So we evaluated the efficacy of percutaneous drainage in patients with emphysematous pyelonephritis. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
7 patients with emphysematous pyelonephritis underwent percutaneous drainage. The result was classified as cure, partial success, recurrence, or failure. The mean drainage period and complication were analyzed.RESULTS:
There were 2 men and 5 women with 49 to 72 years old(mean age 60) suffering from diabets mellitus. Six patients(87.5%) were cured with percutaneous drainage and antibiotics, but one patient who had diffuse renal parenchymal destruction without perirenal fluid collection was failed. The mean catheterization Period was 26.3 days(range 10 to 45). Bacteremia after percutaneous drainage in one patient was cured with antibiotic therapy.CONCLUSIONS:
Percutaneous drainage can be a lifesaving alternative method in critically ill, high risk patient with emphysematous pyelonephritis.
