[Urinary tract infections presenting with jaundice (author's transl)]
Abstract
Ten two to ten weeks old children are presented with urinary tract infection and jaundice. In six cases "E. coli" was the causative organism. Laboratory data seemed to indicate that hemolisis was an important factor in the pathogenesis of jaundice. Treatment with appropriate antibiotics was favorable in all cases. Urinary tract infection with bacteriemia and jaundice is probably the most frequent cause of jaundice among children of two to ten weeks of age.
