Abstract

Purpose: There is no current consensus on what constitutes the ideal management of emphysematous pyelonephritis. We review the current management strategies including the role of nephron preserving percutaneous drainage in the treatment of emphysematous pyelonephritis. Materials and Methods: We searched MEDLINE®, PubMed®, EMBASE®, CINAHL® and the Cochrane Library from 1966 to 2006. Abstracts were reviewed including all types of studies from prospective randomized controlled studies to small retrospective series. All relevant English language articles reporting on at least 5 patients were reviewed. Results: Ten retrospective studies on 210 patients with emphysematous pyelonephritis met the inclusion criteria. There were 167 females and 43 males with a mean age of 57 years (range 24 to 83). Of the patients 96% had diabetes mellitus and 29% had urinary tract obstruction. The diagnostic accuracy of computerized tomography was 100%. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella were the most common causative agents. The mortality from medical management alone was 50%, medical management combined with emergency nephrectomy was 25% and medical management combined with percutaneous drainage was 13.5%. Mortality was significantly less in patients undergoing percutaneous drainage compared to other treatments (Pearson chi-square p <0.001). Of the patients who underwent medical treatment with percutaneous drainage a small number (15) underwent elective nephrectomy and mortality was 6.6% (1 of 15). Conclusions: Percutaneous drainage should be part of the initial management strategy for emphysematous pyelonephritis. This strategy is associated with a lower mortality than medical management or emergency nephrectomy. Delayed elective nephrectomy may be required in some patients. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract

Purpose: Bowel function may be disturbed after intestinal segments are transposed into the urinary tract to reconstruct or replace the bladder. In 1997 our group was the first to report major bowel dysfunction in a cohort of such patients. Up to 42% of those who were asymptomatic preoperatively described new bowel symptoms postoperatively including explosive diarrhea, nocturnal diarrhea, fecal urgency, fecal incontinence and flatus leakage. We now describe bowel symptoms in this same cohort 8 years later (2005). Materials and Methods: A total of 116 patients were evaluable. Of the remaining 37 from the original study 30 had died, 5 no longer wished to be involved and 2 could not be located. Patients were asked to complete postal questionnaires identical to those used in the first followup, assessing the severity of bowel symptoms and quality of life using 2 validated instruments. Responses were compared with those from the original study. The Nottingham Health Profile quality of life scores were also compared to age and sex matched norms. Results: There were 96 patients (83%) who completed 8-year followup questionnaires, including 43 after ileal conduit diversion (group 1), 17 after clam enterocystoplasty for overactive bladder (group 2), 18 after bladder reconstruction for neurogenic bladder dysfunction (group 3) and 18 with bladder replacement for nonneurogenic causes (group 4). High prevalence rates of bowel symptoms persisted with no statistically significant differences between the 2 times. Of those with symptoms in 2005, approximately 50% had reported similar symptoms in 1997. Patients treated with clam enterocystoplasty (group 2) still reported the highest prevalence (59%) of troublesome diarrhea with 1 in 2 on regular antidiarrheal medication. They also had high rates of fecal incontinence (47%), fecal urgency (41%) and nocturnal bowel movement (18%), and a large number reported a moderate or severe adverse effect on work (36%), social life (50%) and sexual activity (43%). High rates were also reported by patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction, including 50% with troublesome diarrhea. This symptom was reported by 19% after ileal conduit and by 17% after bladder replacement for nonneurogenic causes. The impact of bowel symptoms on everyday activities and quality of life persisted, remaining most severe after clam enterocystoplasty, with 24% regretting undergoing the procedure because of subsequent bowel symptoms. Conclusions: After more than 8 years, operations involving transposition of intestinal segments continue to be associated with high rates of bowel symptoms which impact everyday activities. These are particularly troublesome following enterocystoplasty for overactive bladder and bladder reconstruction for neurogenic bladder dysfunction. These risks should influence patient selection and potential patients should be warned before undergoing surgery. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
