Chronic Pyelonephritis is a chronic
infection of the kidneys, resulting from anatomic abnormalities of the kidneys or the
urinary system.
Chronic pyelonephritis occurs only in patients with major
anatomic abnormalities, such as obstructive uropathy, kidney stones, or, most
commonly, reflux of urine at the junction of the bladder and ureter.
