Advances in the Pathophysiology and Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease

Artwork of a section through the urinary system showing an infection of a kidney (pyelonephritis, upper left). The affected kidney is sectioned to show the formation of pus (yellow). Pyelonephritis may be either acute or chronic. The acute form is usually caused when bacteria causing cystitis spreads up the ureters (yellow, down left and right) from the bladder.
