| Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to evaluate the different computed tomography (CT) findings between the bacteremic and non-bacteremic acute pyelonephritis (APN) due to Escherichia coli (E. coli). Current study includes 128 subjects diagnosed with APN due to E. coli and performed contrast-enhanced CT. The usefulness of blood culture that was routinely performed in the patients with APN have been doubted; therefore, several studies which aimed to determine the predictive model of bacteremia by using some clinical features have been published. Here, we analyzed the CT findings of APN according to the presence of bacteremia and suggested the significant CT features predicting bacteremia which were urothelial thickening, diffuse peritoneal thickening, cystitis, and pulmonary congestion. |
