What happens during the disease - chronic obstructive pyelonephritis
Chronic obstructive pyelonephritis is a type of kidney disease caused by a blockage in the urinary tract, which prevents the normal flow of urine. this blockage can be caused by a variety of factors, such as the presence of kidney stones, tumors, or scar tissue in the urinary tract, or a structural abnormality in the kidneys or ureters. the blockage can lead to a buildup of bacteria and toxins in the urinary tract, resulting in inflammation of the kidneys and surrounding tissues. this inflammation can cause permanent damage to the kidneys and ultimately lead to kidney failure.
