OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical outcomes of nonoperative management of @entity293 ( @entity293 ). METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 28 consecutive cases of EUTI over a 5-year period, all of which were treated with urinary drainage and medical management without surgical intervention. @entity293 were classified as either @entity2885 ( @entity2885 ) or @entity2335 ( @entity2335 ). Clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic data were analyzed. RESULTS: Of the 28 @entity1 evaluated, 13 had @entity2885 and 15 had @entity2335 , all of which were diagnosed by computed tomography. Of @entity2885 @entity1 , the mean age was 54 years with a median serum @entity1011 (sCr) of 1.8 mg/dL (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 38 mL/ @entity1009 .73 m(2)). @entity3551 was present in 69%, and 100% received antibiotics and percutaneous drainage without mortality. Median follow-up was 10 months without any subsequent nephrectomy and median sCr decreased to 1.1 mg/dL (P = .04) and eGFR increased to 63.5 mL/ @entity1009 .73 m(2) (P = .06). Of @entity2335 @entity1 , the mean age was 60 years with a median sCr of 1.3 mg/dL (eGFR 55 mL/ @entity1009 .73 m(2)). All were managed with antibiotics and catheter drainage with a single mortality (7%). Median follow-up was 2 months and median sCr decreased to 1.2 mg/dL (P = .83) and eGFR increased to 46 mL/ @entity1009 .73 m(2) (P = .68). The most common causative pathogen was @entity526 for both @entity2885 (54%) and @entity2335 (53%). CONCLUSION: Early detection, medical management, and urinary drainage of EUTI can result in a favorable prognosis. This strategy results in low levels of mortality without the need for surgical intervention and can preserve renal function.
