Atheroembolic Renal Disease: A Beneficial Effect of Steroids
Atheroembolic renal disease (AERD) or cholesterol crystal embolisation often is an under diagnosed clinical illness. It is a multisystemic disease with progressive renal failure due to foreign body reaction of cholesterol crystals flushed into a small vessel system of the kidneys from the arteriosclerotic plaques. It usually occurs after vascular catheterization, anticoagulation and less freque...
متن کاملPredictors of renal and patient outcomes in atheroembolic renal disease: a prospective study.
Atheroembolic renal disease (AERD) is part of a multisystemic disease accompanied by high cardiovascular comorbidity and mortality. Interrelationships between traditional risk factors for atherosclerosis, vascular comorbidities, precipitating factors, and markers of clinical severity of the disease in determining outcome remain poorly understood. Patients with AERD presenting to a single center...
متن کاملPitfall in nephrology: contrast nephropathy has to be differentiated from renal damage due to atheroembolic disease.
INTRODUCTION The topic of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has been receiving an enormous amount of interest in recent times; however, this review is not a review of what CIN is, but what it is not. METHODS We will review the main topics demonstrating that the post hoc ergo propter hoc assumption that renal impairment occurring after contrast medium (CM) infusion is necessarily because of i...
متن کاملLack of association between dialysis modality and outcomes in atheroembolic renal disease.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Atheroembolic renal disease (AERD) can require dialytic support. Because anticoagulation may trigger atheroembolization, peritoneal dialysis may be preferred to hemodialysis. However, the effect of dialysis modality on renal and patient outcomes in AERD is unknown. DESIGN, SETTINGS, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS A subcohort of 111 subjects who developed acute/subacute...
متن کاملThe challenge of diagnosing atheroembolic renal disease: clinical features and prognostic factors.
BACKGROUND Atheroembolic renal disease (AERD) is caused by showers of cholesterol crystals released by eroded atherosclerotic plaques. Embolization may occur spontaneously or after angiographic/surgical procedures. We sought to determine clinical features and prognostic factors of AERD. METHODS AND RESULTS Incident cases of AERD were enrolled at multiple sites and followed up from diagnosis u...
