Alterações anatomopatológicas renais em indivíduos com a síndrome da imunodeficiência adquirida

Abstract: Renal anatomopathological lesions were studied among 119 AIDS patients from Faculdade de Medicina do Triângulo Mineiro's University Hospital (Uberaba, MG, Brazil). From formalin-fixed blocks, slides were obtained and studied by light microscopy. Of 119 patients, 67 presented tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN), 18 inespecific, 2 xantogranulomatous and infections agents were found in 48 as follows: mycosis in 28 (16 Cryptococcus sp; 9 Histoplasma sp, 1 Candida sp e 2 Paracoccidioides brasiliensis); bacteria in 1… Show more

“…Studies regarding this issue are rare, and this is the first and largest study about AIDS-associated AKI in Brazil. LagunaTorres et al (16) studied 119 AIDS patients admitted to a teaching hospital in Southeast Brazil, with a mean age of 33 years, and found serum creatinine levels higher than 3 mg/dL in 12.2% of cases. Electrolyte abnormalities were also found, including hyponatremia (61%), hypernatremia (7%), hypokalemia (24%), and hyperkalemia (7%).…”
