  • Title: Pyelonephritis mimicking colitis on CT: case report.
    Author: Burck I, Yeh BM, Joe BN, Qayyum A, Coakley FV.
    Journal: Abdom Imaging; 2005; 30(1):105-7. PubMed ID: 15647879.
    Abstract:
    We report a patient with acute pyelonephritis in whom the dominant computed tomographic findings were ascending colon and cecal wall thickening and pericolonic fat stranding, likely related to contiguous inflammation from the right kidney. To our knowledge, this is the first report of acute pyelonephritis affecting the right colon mimicking colitis on computed tomography.
