A renal abscess case treated with antibiotic at home

Öz

An 11 years old girl applied for fever and flank pain. The diagnosis of renal abscess was made by ultrasound and computerized tomography. The patient was treated at home with broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy but without drainage. Renal abscess must be suspected in the differential diagnosis of children with fever, flank pain, leukocytosis and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and it must be remembered that they may heal with antibiotic therapy without drainage.

Ayaktan antibiyoterapi ile tedavi edilen bir renal apse olgusu

Öz

On bir yaşındaki kız hasta ateş ve yan ağrısı ile başvurdu. Üriner sistem ultrasonografisi ve bilgisayarlı tomografi ile böbrek apsesi tanısı kondu. Hasta, drenaj uygulanmaksızın geniş spektrumlu antibiyotik tedavisi ile evde başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edildi. Yan ağrısı, ateş, lökositoz ve sedimentasyon yüksekliği olan çocuklarda böbrek apsesi ayırıcı tanıda düşünülmeli ve renal apsenin drenaj uygulanmadan evde antibiyoterapi ile tedavi edilebileceği akılda tutulmalıdır.
