Pyelonephritis is usually managed medically. In recurrent infections, additional investigations may identify an underlying abnormality like a stone, a tumor, or an underlying pathological process that has to be aggressively dealt with. Surgery is usually indicated in a patient who does not improve after 48 hours of IV antibiotics or deteriorates. Occasionally, surgical intervention is necessary to decrease of recurrence and to prevent devastating complications. Various renal conditions like obstructive pyelonephritis with presence of stones in the presence of an infected kidney can be fatal and requires urgent management.
