A case is reported in which exposure to cocaine and indomethacin was associated with development of fetal anuria, anasarca, and neonatal gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Cocaine and indomethacin may act synergistically to adversely affect renal, cardiovascular, and platelet function. It may be prudent
Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (RAS) is an increasingly important cause of end-stage kidney disease, and may cause hypertension, progressive renal failure, and recurrent pulmonary edema. Herein, we report two episodes of anuria and acute pulmonary edema associated with losartan treatment in a
In a 61-year-old man, who had undergone left-sided nephrectomy in the past, and who came with anuria and recurrent pulmonary oedema, complete obstruction of the right renal artery was diagnosed. Recurrent pulmonary oedema may be a manifestation of ischaemic renal disease. This clinical entity is not
BACKGROUND
Multicentric Castleman's disease can mimic adult-onset Still disease. It is exceptionally associated with anasarca, thrombotic microangiopathy and dysautonomia.
METHODS
We report a 32-year-old woman with an association of oligoanuria, anasarca, thrombotic microangiopathy with features
In an attempt to reduce iatrogenic ureteral injury, urologists are frequently called on for placement of prophylactic ureteral catheters in difficult pelvic surgeries. Reflux anuria, which may be more appropriately termed catheter-induced obstructive anuria, has been reported as a complication of
Development of severe twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) in diamniotic-monochorionic twins includes five stages of increasing severity, i.e. recipient polyhydramnios and donor oligohydramnios, donor anuria, abnormal umbilical flow velocities in either twin, hydrops in the recipient, and
A case of diffuse neonatal haemangiomatosis involving the skin, liver, lungs, adrenals, gums, diaphragm, skull, and testes is reported. Intra-uterine onset of bleeding led to bloody amniotic fluid, severe anaemia, congestive heart failure, and hydrops fetalis. Intractable coagulopathy and renal
Giant intraabdominal cysts masquerading as ascites are not uncommon. We present a unique case of a giant intraabdominal pseudocyst that resulted in acute abdominal compartment syndrome, leading to anuria and acute renal failure. A 52-year-old woman with known severe cardiac dysfunction presented
We report the case of a 70-year-old hypertensive man with a solitary kidney and chronic renal insufficiency who developed two episodes of transient anuria after losartan administration. He was hospitalized for a myocardial infarction with pulmonary edema, treated with high-dose diuretics. Due to
OBJECTIVE
Systemic edema is often observed at the terminal stages of cardiac or renal failure, with some cases showing a large amount of exudate excretion from the whole body. We investigated 3 such cases by comparison with those excreting less exudate.
METHODS
We examined the data of 3 male
A young female presenting with right flank pain, fever, raised creatinine and bilateral hydronephrosis was treated with antibiotics elsewhere, with presumptive diagnosis of bilateral pyelonephritis. She had partial relief in symptoms and her creatinine level showed an improvement. Three months later
Hydrops fetalis as well as abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) are conditions that are associated with high mortality rates. A rare case of immature gastric teratoma causing fetal hydrops and subsequent ACS is presented. The related pathophysiologic mechanisms are discussed, and the
