Toluene Exposure

We report a case of the deliberate inhalation of a toluene-containing adhesive which caused acute renal failure and hepatic damage. Renal biopsy disclosed a severe tubulo-interstitial nephritis, renal function recovered after 14 days' haemodialysis. The literature on renal complications of toluene exposure is reviewed, this is the only case of acute renal failure due to interstitial nephritis after toluene exposure with subsequent recovery. Recovery in this case may have been related to the avoidance of further toluene exposure.

Multiorgan Disease

Tuberculosis is a multiorgan disease with varied clinical presentations and is reemerging due to increasing immigration and globalization. We present the case of an immigrant female patient who developed acute renal failure with clinical and biochemical features suggestive of lupus nephritis but with a timely renal biopsy showing caseating granulomata in the renal parenchyma consistent with renal tuberculosis. Despite treatment with antituberculosis treatment and resolution of TB on repeat renal biopsy, she remained haemodialysis dependent. We discuss the diagnostic challenges faced in this presentation and also explore possible differential diagnoses. This rare presentation highlights the importance of renal biopsy in the diagnosis and treatment of acute renal failure and the atypical presentation of tuberculosis.

Abstract Background and Aims Nephrology is a medical specialty, which in the last 50 years experienced very important scientific developments, which formally revolutionized clinical practice, namely renal biopsy, renal replacement therapy and transplantation. In addition understanding pathogenesis and clinic of renal disease also improves steadily, resulting in renewal of definitions, classifications and therapeutics in nephrology. In this context publications with nephrological content are also expanding. The aim of this bibliography-study was to analyze the publications, related to nephrology specific keywords, as they appear in the PubMed database. Method Certain nephrology related keywords were applied: “nephrology”, “acute renal failure”, “renal biopsy”, “hemodialysis”, “peritoneal dialysis” and “renal transplantation” were applied as terms in PubMed. Instead of renal kidney was used as an alternative term. Results Nephrology as a term appears 141573 times in the database and beginning from 1946 its appearance is expanding in the last three decades. The term “acute renal failure” is found for the time in 1932 in one publication and in a total number 92278 of publications. Renal biopsy appears from 1943 in a total number of 15506 publications. Hemodialysis appears in 182730 citations for the first time in 1915 in human application. Peritoneal dialysis appears in 32266 citations for the first time in 1901 and 1946 in human application. One publication on renal transplantation appears in 1946 and the total number of publications related to renal transplantation is 106075. Conclusion According to the above findings there is a clear expansion of nephrological publications in the last decades. In addition, hemodialysis remains still the most frequent term used in nephrology related publications. Historical analysis the PubMed database is very useful as a tool to understand the research and publication trends in nephrology, as we approach to the new era of precision medicine.
