| Abstract | ||
| This work aimed to study the pathological changes induced in the urinary organs after infection with K.pneumoniae. Two laboratory female animal species ,white rat&guinea pig ,were infected by two routes,ascending (first group) and direct(intra renal-second group). The infection was examined in different periods through the bacterial culture of urine & kidney samples as well as the pathological changes (grossµscopic) were examined after post mortum. The resultes of both groups showed a positive bacteriologic culture of the urine & kidney samples concomitant with the gross and histopathological changes of the kidneys which revealed different degrees of inflammation between the two groups as well as within the indivisuals of the same group, especially the kidney specimens which showed pyelonephritis in rats & guinea pigs of both infection routes (ascending and intrarenal). | ||
