Abstract

A 42-year-old female with history of surgery due to urolithiasis was admitted to hospital with complaints of fever, left flank pain and vomiting. She was found to have acute kidney injury due to urinary tract nfection. Abdominal computed tomography revealed right atrophic kidney and left renal and perirenal abscesses together with urolithiasis. Urine, blood and abscess cultures yielded C. albicans. The patient was treated with fluconazole and percutaneous drainage of the perirenal abscess, which was 60 mm n diameter. Her serum creatinine returned to the normal ranges within two weeks of hospitalization. Nearly 18 months following this presentation, she has normal serum creatinine and no abscesses in the kidneys.

Özet

Ürolitiyazis nedeniyle operasyon öyküsü olan 42 yaşında kadın hasta, ateş, sol yan ağrısı ve kusma şikayetiyle hastaneye başvurdu. İdrar yolu infeksiyonuna bağlı akut böbrek hasarı olduğu tespit edildi. Abdominal bilgisayarlı tomografide sağ atrofik böbrek, sol renal ve perirenal apseler ve sol üreterde taşlar tespit edildi. İdrar, kan ve apse kültürlerinde C.albicans üremesi tespit edildi. Hastaya flukonazol ve 60 mm çapındaki perirenal apseye perkütan drenaj uygulandı. Hastaneye yatışının ikinci haftasında serum kreatinin düzeyi normal sınırlara geriledi. Hastanın 18. aydaki kontrolünde serum kreatinin düzeyinin normal olduğu ve böbreklerde apse olmadığı saptandı.
