| Zusammenfassung: | A case of emphysematous pyelonephritis is presented. A 49-year-old male with diabetes mellitus complaining of high grade fever attack and right flank pain was referred from internal medicine. KUB demonstrated that the right ureter, pelvis and calyces were filled with gas. Anti-bioticus was given intensively and the abnormal gas shadow on plain film disappeared before RP was done, but high grade fever attack persisted and right nephrectomy was undergone. After this operation, the fever was relieved and the patient was discharged at the 30th day post-operatively. A search of available literature in Japan has disclosed only 17 reported cases. Diagnostic methods, treatment, complication and etiology are discussed |
