Computerized tomography was performed on 19 patients diagnosed as having uncomplicated acute pyelonephritis. The relationship was investigated among the laboratory findings, presence of flank pain, clinical course and severity of the lesions detected by computerized tomography. In patients febrile for less than 2 weeks healing as assessed by computerized tomography took an average of 76 days. However, in patients with repeated febrile episodes occurring for longer than 2 weeks healing was delayed until an average 232 days after onset. Computerized tomography findings generally correlated well with the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein level, and presence of pyuria and flank pain. However, in patients with a prolonged course computerized tomography proved to be a more reliable indicator of progress than either the results of laboratory tests or the symptoms. In conclusion, computerized tomography was useful in the diagnosis, assessment of severity and evaluation of healing of acute pyelonephritis.
