Secţia Urologie IMSP Spitalul Clinic Republican, Catedra Urologie şi Nefrologie Chirurgicală USMF „N.Testemiţanu”, Al V-lea Congres de Urologie, Dializă şi Transplant Renal din Republica Moldova cu participare internaţională (1-13 iunie 2011)Summary. It is known that during the pregnant morbidity the extragenital pathology is ranked on the first place. Although the pregnancy is a physiologic phenomenon, the vulnerability of the organism in pregnancy is increasing, especially the cardiovascular system that should ensure a complex sanguine circuit – placenta, and of the kidneys that should detoxify a supplemental weight of fetus. The renal pathology in pregnancy occupies the second rank between extrauterine pathologies. Under the influence of some factors, the increasing of PNA in pregnant patients could be observed. Pyelonephritis in pregnancy is a complicated condition with no clear evolution and not very good prognosis for both - the mother and fetus. 49 pregnant patients were evaluated with PNA. In all cases, a treatment was adjusted with favorable results, that included ureteral catheterization and insertion of autostatic stent like JJ stent. The PNA treatment in pregnancy implies the JJ stent insertion, that has an essential role in decompression of renal pelvis and have minimal risk of complications. This contributes to reduction of treatment duration with antibiotics
