Pyonephrosis and renal abscess associated with kidney tumours
Br J Urol.
1991 Nov.
Abstract
Whilst the diagnosis of pyonephrosis and renal abscess is fairly easy, the source of obstruction and infection is an important indicator of treatment. The association of kidney tumours with these inflammatory manifestations has not previously been emphasised. Reviewing our cases of pyonephrosis and renal abscesses, we report 4 patients with concomitant tumours of the kidney and discuss their management.
