Background: Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a histopathological entity associated with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and end-organ ischemic damage. Although TMA is caused by various diseases, there have been few
A 73-year-old man, who had an allergy to shellfish, was admitted to our hospital because of proteinuria, hematuria, purpura and extremity edema after eating oysters. Laboratory data on admission were proteinuria 2.0 g/day, hematuria 3+, serum creatinine (Cr) 1.2 mg/dl, total protein 6.3 g/dl, and
The donor organ shortage has compelled transplant centers to use organs from nontraditional sources. One example is the reuse of a previously transplanted organ, such as a kidney or liver retrieved from a brain-dead allograft recipient. For the first time, we reused a previously transplanted kidney
A renal transplant recipient 7 years post-transplantation, diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma developed thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) after treatment with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel. Gemcitabine was the most likely cause for TMA and was ceased. He received
Treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis may necessitate a methotrexate mono- or combination therapy. As in the present case, novel side effects may occur, when escalating therapy.A 63-year-old Caucasian female patient with rheumatoid arthritis on Differential treatment strategies are applied in thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) according to the sub-classifications. Hence, it is worthwhile to overview clinical manifestations and outcomes of overall TMA patients according to sub-classifications. We analyzed TMA patients whose serum lactate
We report on a 12-year-old female patient with steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome due to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) since her 3rd year of life. She was twice treated with oral cyclophosphamide and received antihypertensive treatment with atenolol and enalapril. After 3 years without
BACKGROUND
We report the case of a multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) with initial renal involvement. Although the renal involvement in this case was typical of MCD, it constitutes a rare presentation of the disease, and in our case the renal manifestations led to the haematological
Background: The current study aimed to evaluate the associations between podocyte injury and clinicopathological features in renal thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) based on a Chinese cohort, which might be underscored in this
Post snake bite renal failure due to thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is often overlooked and not considered as a separate entity while managing the patient. This case report highlights the efficacy of Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in managing the post envenomation TMA. Anti-snake venom was
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare life-threatening thrombotic microangiopathy. Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is the first-line treatment for TTP. In our institution, albumin plus plasma (fresh frozen plasma [FFP] and/or cryoprecipitate-reduced plasma [CRP]) has A 48-year-old woman presented with severe abdominal pain, bilious vomiting and bloody diarrhoea for 1 day. On examination, she was haemodynamically unstable, febrile and clinically had an acute surgical abdomen. She had markedly raised inflammatory markers, neutrophils and deranged renal function. A
BACKGROUND
The objective of this study was to assess clinicopathological characteristics and outcomes of lupus nephritis adult patients in China.
METHODS
Clinicopathological features, treatment strategies, responses and outcome of 681 adult patients with biopsy-proved lupus nephritis were
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms and rare mutations in factor H (FH; official name, CFH) are associated with age-related macular degeneration and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, a form of thrombotic microangiopathy. Mice with the FH W1206R mutation (FHR/R) share features with human
The distribution of renin was investigated by immunofluorescence in human kidney biopsy specimens (27 patients with lipoid nephrosis, 39 with Berger disease, 17 with membranous glomerulonephritis, 5 with thrombotic microangiopathy, and 7 with malignant nephroangiosclerosis). A semiquantitative
