Abstract
Acute focal bacterial nephritis (AFBN) is a bacterial infection of the renal parenchyma without abscess formation and is classified as a subtype of acute renal pyelitis. There are many reports of AFBN in pediatrics; however, urinary tract infection, cystitis, or pyelitis developed into AFBN in few adult cases. AFBN symptoms include fever, shivering, back pain, and/or costovertebral angle tenderness. Here, we report two adult cases of AFBN in which its diagnosis using contrast-enhanced computed tomography was helpful. World J Nephrol Urol. 2016;5(3):63-66 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.14740/wjnu280w
