抄録: | Acute focal bacterial nephritis (AFBN) is a localized bacterial infection of the kidney presenting as an inflammatory mass without frank abscess formation. We report a case of acute focal bacterial nephritis without pyuria in a five-month-old boy presenting with high urinary β2-microglobulin (β2-MG) and N-Acetyl-β-(D)-Glucosaminidase (NAG) levels. The infant initially presented with high-grade fever, and plain computed tomography (CT) showed a nearly isodense mass, and contrast-enhanced abdominal CT showed a wedge-shaped hypodense lesion. Enterococcus was detected in the subsequent urine culture. A diagnosis of AFBN was made on the basis of his high inflammatory reaction, contrast-enhanced abdominal CT findings and high urinary β2-MG and NAG levels. He was treated with Ceftriaxone and subsequent improvement in inflammatory reaction and contrast-enhanced CT findings were observed. Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) showed a grade V right VUR. This case suggests that urinary β2-MG and NAG levels may be useful additional markers for the diagnosis of AFBN without pyuria. |
