Common risk factors in the development of pyelonephritis include renal [[calculi]], urinary tract catheterization, [[pregnancy]], [[diabetes mellitus]], and [[benign prostatic hyperplasia]].
Most risk factors of pyelonephritis are similar to those for [[cystitis]] and [[urethritis]], since they themselves predispose the individual to pyelonephritis. Common risk factors in the development of pyelonephritis include renal [[calculi]], [[Urinary catheterization|urinary tract catheterization]], [[pregnancy]], [[diabetes mellitus]], and [[benign prostatic hyperplasia]].

Overview

Most risk factors of pyelonephritis are similar to those for cystitis and urethritis, since they themselves predispose the individual to pyelonephritis. Common risk factors in the development of pyelonephritis include renal calculi, urinary tract catheterization, pregnancy, diabetes mellitus, and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Risk Factors

Risk is increased in the following situations:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Mechanical/Anatomical

Any structural abnormalities of the kidneys and the urinary tract can lead to abnormal accumulation of bacteria that can reach the renal parenchyma to cause pyelonephritis.

Foreign Body

Other Conditions

General risk factors

  • Change in sexual partner within the last year
  • Spermicide use
  • Decreased expression of CXCR1 (a receptor for IL-8)
  • Genetic predisposition
  • Positive family history (close family members with frequent urination)
  • Young women (reflecting sexual activity in that age group)
  • Infants with anatomical abnormalities and elderly with hormonal abnormalities[9]
