[Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. Our experience in the last 10 years].
A retrospective study of 34 xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) cases operated on in our Service was performed. An analysis is made of the clinical signs, laboratory data, imaging diagnostic techniques and the value of cytology in the assessment of this entity. A very characteristic clinical and biological picture, although somewhat nonspecific of XGP, was encountered. The high sensitivity of simple abdominal X-ray films and I.V.U., as well as the high specificity of cytologic studies in the diagnosis of the disease, was shown.
