Infection of a renal cyst, a rare complication of bronchopneumonia.
The authors report a rare case of abscess developed in a solitary renal cyst and observed just after the resolution of a bronchopneumonia. The modern imaging techniques, sonography and computed tomography, permitted an exact diagnosis, and subsequent surgical treatment brought to a complete recovery.
