Renal actinomycosis is a rare clinical entity. Diagnosis is usually made after resection. A 36-year-old male presented with uro-cutaneous fistula and left xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. He was offered left open radical nephrectomy. Intra-operatively, there was "woody" inflammation of the left kidney fistulizing to the splenic flexure of the colon. We successfully resected it and a segment of the colon that had fistulized. His tissue cultures grew . Post-operatively, he received 6 weeks of intravenous beta-lactam antibiotic. He recovered well without any complications. In conclusion, renal actinomycosis can be challenging to diagnose, operate and eradicate. Perioperative considerations are presented for successful management.
肾放线菌病是一种罕见的临床病症。诊断通常在切除术后做出。一名36岁男性出现尿皮肤瘘和左黄肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎。他接受了左开放性根治性肾切除术。术中,左肾有“木质样”炎症,与结肠脾曲形成瘘管。我们成功切除了病变及发生瘘管的一段结肠。他的组织培养有生长。术后,他接受了6周的静脉注射β-内酰胺抗生素治疗。他恢复良好,无任何并发症。总之,肾放线菌病在诊断、手术和根除方面可能具有挑战性。本文介绍了成功管理的围手术期注意事项。
