RESUMO
We developed a murine model of kidney abscess by direct renal injection of either Escherichia coli (1 × 106 to 7 × 106 organisms) or sterile medium. Bacterial infection produced renal abscesses, bacteremia, and late-onset leukocytosis in all animals. Controls were unaffected. This model may be useful for the study of various sequelae of kidney infection.
