Xanthogranulomatous Pyelonephritis Associated with Hepatic Dysfunction in Pregnancy

الملخص EN

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is a rare disease characterised by the replacement of normal renal parenchyma by foamy macrophages.

The only treatment for this type of pyelonephritis is of a surgical nature with partial or total nephrectomy.

The occurrence of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis during pregnancy is a rare event (with only 6 cases described in the literature).

We report a case of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis in a 32-week pregnant woman associated with hepatic dysfunction.
