    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Renal parenchymal malacoplakia (RPM) is a rare inflammatory condition, typically seen in middle-aged women with E. coli pyelonephritis. Prognosis varies with RPM patterns, but long-term survival is achievable with proper treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Pathology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Malacoplakia is a rare inflammatory disease.
    • It typically affects the bladder but can rarely involve the renal parenchyma.
    • Renal parenchymal malacoplakia (RPM) is an uncommon manifestation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present clinical, radiographic, and pathological findings of 5 renal parenchymal malacoplakia cases.
    • To review 30 additional cases from existing literature.
    • To analyze the characteristics and prognosis of RPM.

    Main Methods:

    • Case series presentation.
    • Literature review of previously reported RPM cases.
    • Analysis of clinical, radiographic, and pathological data.

    Main Results:

    • Most patients were middle-aged women with E. coli pyelonephritis.
    • Two radiographic patterns were identified: multifocal and unifocal.
    • Prognosis was dependent on the pattern and extent of the disease.

    Conclusions:

    • Renal parenchymal malacoplakia is a rare entity, often associated with E. coli infections.
    • Radiographic patterns influence patient outcomes.
    • Appropriate therapeutic strategies can lead to long-term survival.
