    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1995 Nov; 48(9):956-9. PubMed ID: 8554404.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: The etiopathogenic and therapeutic aspects of emphysematous pyelonephritis, an uncommon disease entity, are discussed. METHODS/RESULTS: We describe the clinical history of a diabetic with intercurrent gas-forming infection in the form of emphysematous pyelonephritis that was successfully treated. CONCLUSIONS: This disease entity, which is almost exclusive to diabetic patients, is unique. It produces a type of organism that warrants early and aggressive treatment.
