Four clinically healthy cattle persistently infected with the virus of bovine viral diarrhea were examined for viral antigen and lesions. Antigen was seen by direct immunofluorescence in cytoplasm of the neurons of the brain and cervical part of the spinal cord, cells and basement membrane of renal
Hypocomplementemic urticarial vasculitis syndrome (HUVS) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by multiple organ system involvement, including renal disease, with low complement levels. We report the case of a 31-year-old woman who presented with nonspecific symptoms including fatigue,
A 35-year-old man developed leg edema, marked hypoalbuminemia, and proteinuria. Subsequent renal biopsy revealed a diffuse membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and, on electron microscopy, typical electron-dense deposits characteristic of an immune complex pathogenesis. Although protein wasting
IgA nephropathy and poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis are common forms of primary glomerulonephritis in children. This paper reports a 5-year-old Omani boy who had a chance occurrence of these two different glomerular diseases. Our patient presented with clinical features of poststreptococcal
A 13-year-old girl presented with a history of fever, arthritis, conjunctivitis, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Colonoscopy and barium enema were consistent with Crohn's disease. A renal biopsy, performed because of persistent proteinuria and hematuria in the absence of obstruction to the urinary
In a 53-year-old female patient with recurrent, sometimes bloody diarrhea, the long standing diagnosis of an ANA-negative lupus erythematosus with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, leucocytoclastic vasculitis and chronic hepatitis was ruled out and the diagnosis of a hepatitis C associated
A patient with chronic active hepatitis and membranous glomerulonephritis acquired an acute, fatal illness characterized by a toxic erythematous desquamative dermatitis with bulla formation, fever, diarrhea, and hepatic and renal failure. The cutaneous histopathologic appearance resembled that found
BACKGROUND
A 36-year-old white male with a history of allergic rhinitis and sinusitis presented to the emergency room with abdominal pain and diarrhea. Physical examination revealed fever, hypoxemia and a maculopapular rash. Laboratory tests showed proteinuria, hematuria, leukocytosis, eosinophilia
The aim of this study was to determine the pathogenicity of an Indian bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) 1b isolate in 7-9-months-old male calves. Infected (four) and control (two) calves were bled at three days interval for hematological, virological and serological studies until day 27. All
Herein, we report a case of acute kidney injury (AKI) due to diarrhea-induced acute tubular necrosis (ATN) in a patient with nephrotic syndrome secondary to biopsy-proven collapsing focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The clinical picture mimicked rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
The Drash syndrome, the first case in Thailand is reported. The patient had male pseudohermaphrodite, Wilms' tumor of the left kidney and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. Metastasis of Wilms' tumor was noted in the liver, omentum, pelvic peritoneum and vertebral body. Chemotherapy
Accumulating evidence indicates that recurrent glomerulonephritis is the third most important cause of renal allograft loss at 10 years after transplantation. The proteinuria and elevated serum creatinine levels that result from recurrent glomerulonephritis are associated with cardiovascular
Glomerulonephritis is reported as a rare extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease. We report a case of a 69-year-old woman who suffered from membranous glomerulonephritis, 3 years after diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome. She was admitted because of acute kidney failure, bloody
Glomerulonephritis (GN) is a leading cause of chronic renal failure in dogs. However, little is known about the efficacy of available treatment options for GN in this species. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of cyclosporine (Cy) administration on the outcome of naturally
A 64-year-old man, who came to us with diarrhea, presented with ectodermal changes such as hyperpigmentation, alopecia, and onychatrophy, and was affected by polyposis in the colorectum and stomach. The polyps were histologically consistent with those in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS).
