description Emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis are intractable diseases. Eight cases of bilateral emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis have been reported, but no treatment has been established. An 88-year-old female was admitted with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, and on the fourth day of hospitalization, she developed fever and septic shock. A computed tomography scan revealed bilateral emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis. The patient was treated with bilateral double-J stents and an indwelling urethral catheter. This is the first report of bilateral emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis treated conservatively with drainage and an internal stent, which may be a treatment option.
