A case of tubulointerstitial nephritis in a patient with an influenza H1N1 infection.
Pediatr Nephrol. 2012 Jun 17;
Authors: Ashtiani N, Mulder MF, van Wijk JA, Bokenkamp A
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Patients suffering from an H1N1 infection mainly suffer from respiratory symptoms but may also develop symptoms in other organ systems, such as the kidneys. CASE-DIAGNOSIS/TREATMENT: A 4 ?‚½â?€?‰year-old boy was admitted with relatively mild respiratory symptoms of H1N1 infection, but developed severe generalized proximal tubular dysfunction with sterile leucocyturia and a reversible rise in serum creatinine. He made a full recovery with supportive therapy. CONCLUSION: Influenza H1N1 may be associated with acute tubulointerstitial nephritis.
