A rare case – Escalation of care for high risk emphysematous pyelonephritis in rural Australia

Emphysematous Pyelonephritis (EP) is a rare necrotizing renal parenchymal infection characterised by gas within the kidney parenchyma. Management with emergency nephrectomy has transitioned to a graded medical, radiological intervention and surgical approach. We present a rare case of high-risk emph...

description Emphysematous Pyelonephritis (EP) is a rare necrotizing renal parenchymal infection characterised by gas within the kidney parenchyma. Management with emergency nephrectomy has transitioned to a graded medical, radiological intervention and surgical approach. We present a rare case of high-risk emphysematous pyelonephritis, outlining key high risk factors and demonstrating staggered care escalation within a rural Australian referral hospital.
