| Zusammenfassung: | A case of emphysematous pyelonephritis with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is presented. A 54-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of unclear consciousness and extremely high blood glucose level. The laboratory data suggested uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) and urinary tract infection with sepsis and DIC. The plain abdominal X-P and abdominal CT revealed the existence of gas in the right renal parenchyma, perinephric tissue and the upper part of the right ureter. Right nephrectomy was performed after the improvement of the patient's condition by the echo-guided drainage of the right kidney and the treatment for infection, DM and DIC. We reviewed 71 cases of emphysematous pyelonephritis in the Japanese literature and the choice of treatment was discussed |
