Multiple Renal Abscesses due to ESBL Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing<i> Escherichia coli</i> Causing Acute Pyelonephritis and Bacteremia: A Case Report with a Good Outcome (No Drainage Required)

<div>Abdomen CT scan with intravenous contrast on the third day of admission. It showed two left renal focal pyelonephritic changes in the upper and middle poles as well as the perinephric fat infiltration and thickening of Gerota’s fascia. Also, scattered small para-aortic lymph nodes are noted. The first abscess in the upper pole is 2.5 × 2.3 cm in diameter (CT scan cut on (a)), and the other one in the middle pole is 2.6 × 1.8 cm in diameter (CT scan cut on (b)).</div>
