Case presentation: We report that an 83-year-old Taiwanese female with fever up to 38.5 C and conscious alternation. She has a history of diabetic mellitus, chronic kidney disease, thoracic aorta aneurysm S/P TEVAR four years ago, suspected right breast cancer without tissue proof with axillary lymph nodes involvement, and lung metastasis. A computed tomography showed left urolithiasis with hydroureteronephrosis and emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN). Right breast cancer was suspected, however, family wished conservative treatment. She underwent percutaneous nephrostomy for drainage (PCND). The images and data will be presented.
Conclusion: PCND is helpful in accelerating resolution of the infection and minimizing the mortality and morbidity of the infection. Nephrectomy seems to play no role for a terminal patient with EPN.
