[Bacteriostatic shock in acute purulent pyelonephritis].
Fifty-seven patients with acute purulent pyelonephritis (APP) complicated by bacteriotoxic shock (BTS) were treated in Daghestan Medical Academy's urological clinic from 1982 to 1999. The condition was primarily caused by acute occlusion of the urinary tracts. The first step of the treatment was aimed at the recovery of normal hemodynamics. As early as the first hours of BTS, plasma- and hemosorption, hemodialysis, hemodialysis were made. If the patients got better, they were operated to remove the obstruction for urine flow (epicystostomy, nephrostomy). 28 recent cases received adjuvant laser therapy--irradiation of the cavitary renal system and blood. This was performed via light guide inserted into the renal pelvis through the nephrostomic drainage. The guide was connected with the He-Ne optic quantum generator AFL-1. Laser procedure lasted for 8-12 min, a course consisted of 7-8 procedures. Later, laser beam was also directed to the biologically active points corresponding to pyelonephritis. Normalization of renal function and T, B immunity was faster in patients exposed to laser radiation. Lethality in this group was lower.
