Overview
Common causes of pyelonephritis include functional or anatomic abnormality of the urinary tract that lead to vesicoureteral reflux, and infections such as E. coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella spp., and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.[1]

Causes
Common Causes
- Most cases of "community-acquired" pyelonephritis are due to bowel organisms that enter the urinary tract. Common organisms are:
- E. coli (70-80%)
- Enterococcus faecalis
- Hospital-acquired infections may be due to coliforms and enterococci, as well as other organisms uncommon in the community.
