The authors studied the etiological spectrum of 226 patients with chronic pyelonephritis, with 926 microbic strains isolated from the urocultures. The most frequent microbic causative agents were E. coli (40,82%), Proteus (a total of 17,82%), Enterobacter (8,86%), Klebsiella (8,64%), Pseudomonas (6,16%), Enterococcus (5,94%). The drug susceptibility of the majority of the isolated gram-negative microorganisms versus ampicillin and chloramphenicol, widely used in out-patient department practice, is relatively low. An important condition for the effectiveness of the treatment is the consideration given to the susceptibility of the microbic strains, isolated from the uroculture.
