ABSTRACT = {Malakoplakia involving the genitourinary tract is a 
rare infl ammatory disorder that presents a diagnostic 
challenge. Renal parenchymal involvement is particularly 
uncommon. We report a case of bilateral renal malakoplakia 
that presented with acute renal failure and simulated 
xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP). The 
etiology, clinical course, and management of malakoplakia 
are reviewed, emphasizing the distinct characteristics of 
the disease that lead to its accurate diagnosis.},
