Eight pediatric cases of the diffuse form of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis are reported. These patients were selected among 17 with destruction of one kidney. Clinical symptoms were suggestive of a tumor in some instances. However, an infectious etiology was strongly suggested by the presence of a renal lithiasis in seven cases (including five staghorn stones) and of a urinary tract infection in six cases (usually caused by a Proteus). Nephrectomy was performed in every case.
报告了8例弥漫型黄色肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎的儿科病例。这些患者是从17例一侧肾脏遭到破坏的患者中挑选出来的。在某些情况下，临床症状提示为肿瘤。然而，7例（包括5例鹿角形结石）存在肾结石以及6例（通常由变形杆菌引起）存在尿路感染强烈提示为感染性病因。所有病例均进行了肾切除术。
