Résumé
Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) and emphysematous cystitis (EC) are severe, necrotizing emphysematous urinary tract infections (EUTI) characterized by the presence of gas in the lumen and wall of the urinary tract and renal parenchyma. EUTIs are quite uncommon, but combination of bilateral EPN and EC is extremely rare. We report a case of 57-year-old diabetic female diagnosed with septic shock due to concurrent bilateral EPN and EC. Patient was successfully treated with a drainage of pelvicalyceal systems and the bladder combined with a conservative approach. This unique case presents a possible association between glomerulonephritis and EUTI.
