[Some current aspects of diagnosis of calculous pyelonephritis].
Immunomicrobiological examination was made of 656 urine and 71 blood samples from 71 patients with chronic pyelonephritis and coral nephrolithiasis. Bacteriuria in blood agar was quantified in colony-forming cells (CFC) in 1 ml of the urine. Identification of the bacterial strains was made by conventional methods. Blood samples were examined for phagocytic activity (PA) of neutrophils and phagocytic index (PI) in incomplete (30 min) and complete (2 hours) variants (S.aureus-209P), levels of IgA, IgM, IgG (in IU/ml), complement (CH50), T- and B-lymphocytes and 0-cells. Opportunistic bacteria (OB) in titer from Ig 2 to Ig 5 CFC/ml and more were identified in 428 (65.25%) samples. OB monocultures prevailed (48.6%). In exacerbation of the disease the majority of the examinees (73.0%) showed deficiency of both cellular and humoral components of antiinfection resistance system (AIRS). First-line defense against bacterial invasion was impaired as shown by incomplete neutrophil digestion in 62.0% of examinees. Among patients with humoral immunodeficiency, those with low IgM were the minority (45.0%). T-RFC and B-RFC deficiency (in 68.0 and 52.0%, respectively), low levels of IgG and IgA (66.0 and 73.0% cases, respectively) indicated deficiency of immunocompetent cells and their functional activity. The study of the AIRS established significance of its components for early and significant diagnosis of calculous pyelonephritis. Pyelonephritis in nephrolithiasis runs with deficiency of both cellular and humoral components of AIRS.
