Kidney and urinary tract infections

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and their rational treatment represent the most common therapeutic and diagnostic problem, especially for general practitioners and paediatricians. Special topics on IMC in patients with renal failure treated with dialysis are also presented. A special chapter is devoted to infections in children, urological patients and patients at risk (DM, old age, pregnancy). Rarer diseases of mycotic, viral and septic origin are also listed. The book includes basic current treatment algorithms.
