Pyelonephritis4

• Pyonephrosis-pus in the renal pelvis-results from urinary tract obstruction in the presence of pyelonephritis . (medscape.com)
• Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis , a clinical condition consisting of upper renal calculus and infection, has been reported to progress to pyonephrosis when obstruction is present. (medscape.com)
• The scannographic image allowed us to suggest the following diagnosis: diffuse xanthogranulomateuse pyelonephritis (XGP), multicystic kidney with pyonephrosis, kidney tumor necrosis (clear cell carcinoma. (ajol.info)
• If you do not pay attention to the signs of the disease and cure it in time, a urinary tract infection will be complicated by an abscess of the renal cortex, perinephric abscess, pyonephrosis, gangrenous pyelonephritis or chronic pyelonephritis. (uppmd.org)

Hydronephrosis2

• Upper urinary tract infection in combination with obstruction and hydronephrosis may lead to pyonephrosis. (medscape.com)
• animal studies have demonstrated that dilation due to Escherichia coli endotoxin during acute infection can be confused with hydronephrosis, pyonephrosis, or obstruction [ 2 ]. (chikd.org)

Abscess2

• Similar to an abscess, pyonephrosis is typically associated with fever, chills, and flank pain, although some patients may be asymptomatic. (medscape.com)
• The prolonged duration of parenteral antibacterial administration is generally 3-5 days after resolution of fever or control of complications (eg, pyonephrosis or renal abscess), though a longer administration may be necessary in some cases, depending on disease state. (medscape.com)

Nephrectomy3

• When indicated, laparoscopic nephrectomy for inflammatory kidney disorders such as pyonephrosis has been shown to be safe and effective. (medscape.com)
• In agreement with the quali- a right nephrectomy for obstructive pyonephrosis. (cdc.gov)
• Herein, we report the occurrence of postoperative cholestatic jaundice in a thirty years old female patient after subcapsular nephrectomy for pyonephrosis. (longdom.org)

Ureter1

• When fungus balls are present, they may obstruct the renal pelvis or the ureter, resulting in pyonephrosis. (medscape.com)

Renal infections1

• The true incidence of development of pyonephrosis with other renal infections is not reported. (medscape.com)

Infection4

• Pyonephrosis (Greek pyon "pus" + nephros "kidney") is an infection of the kidneys' collecting system. (wikipedia.org)
• Pyonephrosis is sometimes a complication of kidney stones, which can be a source of persisting infection. (wikipedia.org)
• Pyonephrosis may be caused by a broad spectrum of pathologic conditions involving either an ascending infection of the urinary tract or the hematogenous spread of a bacterial pathogen. (medscape.com)
• Pyonephrosis is a term given to an infection of the kidney with pus in the upper collecting system which can progress to obstruction. (rajeevclinic.com)

Obstruction2

• However, the risk of pyonephrosis is increased in patients with upper urinary tract obstruction secondary to various causes (eg, stones, tumors, ureteropelvic junction [UPJ] obstruction). (medscape.com)
• Case reports indicate that obstruction from tumors, such as in transitional cell carcinoma, may also cause pyonephrosis. (medscape.com)

Diagnosis1

• A diagnosis of pyonephrosis was made after pathological examination of the pus-filled structure. (uzh.ch)

TREATMENT1

• Postoperative cholestatic jaundice may occur immediately after surgical treatment of pyonephrosis, but it is a rare condition. (longdom.org)

Case1

• 4. Gopaldas R , Rastogi V, Gulick T. A case of pyonephrosis secondary to ureteral stent calculus. (rajgopaldasmd.com)

Rare1

• Pyonephrosis is uncommon in adults and rare in children, and it is thought to be extremely rare in neonates. (medscape.com)

Patients1

• Multiple infectious agents have been isolated in patients with pyonephrosis. (medscape.com)

Abscesses1

• Presentation of disease is varied, ranging from chronic renal pain to features of renal abscesses or pyonephrosis. (journalcra.com)

Obstructive2

• Case presentation: We report a case of obstructive pyonephrosis due to an azole (fluconazole and itraconazole) resistant Candida glabrata strain that failed to respond to intravenous treatment with caspofungin. (uea.ac.uk)
• In order to achieve long term sustained cure from an obstructive pyonephrosis, pus and fungal balls should be drained and an anti-fungal agent such as amphotericin B deoxycholate instilled locally. (uea.ac.uk)

Transitional cell carc1

• Case reports indicate that obstruction from tumors, such as in transitional cell carcinoma, may also cause pyonephrosis. (medscape.com)

Renal2

• The true incidence of development of pyonephrosis with other renal infections is not reported. (medscape.com)
• When fungus balls are present, they may obstruct the renal pelvis or the ureter, resulting in pyonephrosis. (medscape.com)

Intestinal1

• Other complications of appendicular mucocele include intestinal bleeding, intestinal obstruction, and pyonephrosis. (coloproctol.org)

Urinary1

• However, little is known about the clinical efficacy in the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections due to Candida species such as pyonephrosis. (uea.ac.uk)
