Relationship of the Kidneys to Vertebra and Ribs

Figure 23.1b
UTI

They are retroperitoneal and are located in the abdominal cavity.


They are at the level of T12 to L3, so they are at the costal margin, and the ribs protect them a little.

Even though they are protected by thoracic ribs, they are NOT in the thoracic cavity because they are below the diaphragm.

Case history

A 9 year old girl with a 2 days history of loin pain ,fever and vomiting, clinically she appears ill.

a full blood count shows a Hb 12 mg/dl,

WBC of 14x10( cells/L
You send of a midstream urine sample for culture.

prescribed paracetol and ask the patient came next day. The next day you find that she has been reported urine culture of more than 100 000colonies of E-Coli.

What is the most probable diagnosis ??


Which part of renal tract is most likely infected and why??
What choice of antibiotics??
investigations that are needed

DIAGNOSIS

urine culture

Imaging of the Renal tract

* Renal U/S
* KUB
* DMSA
* IVU


* Cystogram
VCUG/RNC
The goal of imaging studies in UTI is to identify
Anatomic abnormalities that predispose to infection and identify scarring

Urinary Tract Infection
Upper urinary tract Infections:
Pyelonephritis


Lower urinary tract infections
Cystitis (“traditional” UTI)
Urethritis (often sexually-transmitted)
Prostatitis

Symptoms of pyelonephritis

Hematuria
Fever
Nausea/Vomiting (pyelonephritis)
Flank pain (pyelonephritis)

Findings on Exam in UTI

Physical Exam:
Costo Vertebral Angle tenderness (pyelonephritis)
Urethral discharge (urethritis)
Tender prostate on PRE (prostatitis)
Suprapubic tenderness (cystitis)
Labs: Urinalysis
Positive + WBCs
Positive + RBCs


Culture in UTI
Positive Urine Culture = >105 CFU/mL
Most common pathogen for cystitis, prostatitis, pyelonephritis:
Escherichia coli
Staphylococcus saprophyticus
Proteus mirabilis
Klebsiella
Enterococcus
Most common pathogen for urethritis
Chlamydia trachomatis
Neisseria Gonorrhea

Pyelonephritis

Infection of the kidney
Associated with constitutional symptoms – fever, nausea, vomiting, headache
Diagnosis:
Urinalysis, urine culture, CBC, Chemistry
Treatment:
2-weeks of Trimethroprim/sulfamethoxazole or fluoroquinolone ,cephalosporins
Hospitalization and Intravenous antibiotics if patient unable to take orally .
