RESUMO
Urinary tract infections may have different clinical presentations that may range from asymptomatic bacteriuria to purulent collections and severe sepsis. We report 6 diabetic patients, 3 presenting with a renal carbuncle and 3 with an emphysematous pyelonephritis. All required medical and surgical treatment and had a good evolution. Two carbuncles were caused by beta-hemolitic type B streptococcus. This is the second notification of this agent as causative of renal abscesses, probably reaching the kidney through hematogenous dissemination from cutaneous foci
