Six patients with intrarenal and perinephric abscesses [caused by Escherichia coli] underwent successful nonoperative management by percutaneous aspiration and systemic antibiotic [ampicillin] therapy. The concept of percutaneous management is discussed with reference to its benefits, risks and technical variations.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
