Acute tubulo-interstitial nephritis leading to acute renal failure following multiple hornet stings
BACKGROUND Hornet stings are generally associated with local and occasionally anaphylactic reactions. Rarely systemic complications like acute renal failure can occur following multiple stings. Renal failure is usually due to development of acute tubular necrosis as a result of intravascular haemolysis, rhabdomyolysis or shock. Rarely it can be following development of acute tubulo-interstitial...
متن کاملAn unexpected complication of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia: severe renal failure due to malignant tubulo-interstitial cell infiltration
Acute renal failure may complicate the course of a hematologic malignancy but is a highly unusual finding in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. Kidney biopsy is rarely performed in this setting, and the pathologic substrate underlying kidney injury is not well identified. We present a case of a biopsy-proven acute tubulo-interstitial nephritis due to massive infiltration of neoplast...
متن کاملAcute tubulo-interstitial nephritis with positive anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.
INTRODUCTION Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis involving the kidney usually comprises pauci-immune, necrotizing glomerulonephritis with crescents. Mononuclear tubulo-interstitial infiltrates are common in ANCA associated vasculitis, but these have usually been described in conjunction with glomerulitis. Acute tubulo-interstitial nephritis (ATIN) is a common cause...
متن کاملDrug-induced tubulo-interstitial nephritis secondary to proton pump inhibitors: experience from a single UK renal unit.
BACKGROUND Acute tubulo-interstitial nephritis (TIN) is an important cause of acute renal failure, and is often caused by hypersensitivity to drugs. The aim of this study was to determine the aetiology of interstitial nephritis among an unselected cohort of patients, and to identify those drugs commonly implicated. METHODS A single-centre retrospective analysis was carried out of renal biopsy...
متن کاملJejuno-ileal bypass, enteric hyperoxaluria, and oxalate nephrosis: a role for polarised light in the renal biopsy.
Enteric hyperoxaluria, a complication of jejuno-ileal bypass, is associated with renal failure owing to oxalate nephrosis or tubulo-interstitial nephritis. A 54 year old woman developed renal failure 17 months after jejuno-ileal bypass for morbid obesity. Renal biopsy showed widespread acute on chronic damage to the tubulo-interstitial compartment with extensive deposition of oxalate crystals. ...
