    Abstract:
    Emphysematous pyelonephritis is rare form of pyelonephritis, which has mortality of nearly 80%. Conservative treatment can be successful in less than 30% of cases. Currently, in the guidelines there is no standard approach to conservative and surgical treatment of this entity. The clinical observation of successful conservative treatment of a patient with emphysematous pyelonephritis, associated with decompensated diabetes mellitus, from the diagnosis to recovery without performing nephrectomy in order to preserve kidney function, is described in the article.
