| Definitions |
[MSH Definition]: Inflammation of the KIDNEY involving the renal parenchyma (the NEPHRONS); KIDNEY PELVIS; and KIDNEY CALICES. It is characterized by ABDOMINAL PAIN; FEVER; NAUSEA; VOMITING; and occasionally DIARRHEA. [CTCAE Definition]: A disorder characterized by an infectious process involving the kidney. [CSP Definition]: inflammation of the kidney and its pelvis due to infection. [NCIt Definition]: An inflammatory process affecting the kidney. The cause is most often bacterial, but may also be fungal in nature. Signs and symptoms may include fever, chills, flank pain, painful and frequent urination, cloudy or bloody urine, and confusion. [NICHD Definition]: An infection of the kidney. [HPO Definition]: An inflammation of the kidney involving the parenchyma of kidney, the renal pelvis (FMA:15575) and the kidney calices. [HPO:probinson] [CDISC Definition]: A tubulointerstitial inflammatory disease involving a spectrum of lesions affecting the tubules, interstitium and/or the pelvis of the kidney. Pyelonephritis can result from infections, both ascending and descending and following papillary necrosis and urothelial ulceration. Certain strains of rodents are particularly susceptible to developing spontaneous pyelonephritis and are used as animal models to assess antibiotic therapy. (INHAND) |
