title: [Acute renal insufficiency in spontaneous septicemia of renal origin. Analysis of a series of 17 patients].
abstract: Seventeen recent cases of spontaneous renal septicemia with acute renal failure are reviewed, confirming the need for a diagnostic and therapeutic strategy to restore the fluid balance, if necessary with the aid of an artificial kidney, and the urgency of treating local infection and the pathogenic agents involved. The case review also suggest that the high mortality rate of this infection, estimated by some observers at 50 p. cent, can be greatly reduced by early radical urological treatment.
