Chinese herbs nephropathy is known as a subacute interstitial nephritis attributed to aristolochic acid. This work describes the case of a 49-year-old male who displayed subacute renal failure induced by ingestion of herbal powder containing Xi Xin, which includes aristolochic acid. Since Xi Xin is a common ingredient in traditional formulae, care needs to be taken in the future to identify the aristolochic acid concentration of different components of Xi Xin. Xi Xin containing aristolochic acid should be forbidden for use in remedies in order to prevent the harmful effects of aristolochic acid.
中草药肾病被认为是一种由马兜铃酸引起的亚急性间质性肾炎。本文描述了一名49岁男性的病例,该患者因摄入含有细辛(其中含有马兜铃酸)的草药粉而引发亚急性肾衰竭。由于细辛是传统配方中的常见成分,今后需要注意确定细辛不同成分中的马兜铃酸浓度。应禁止将含有马兜铃酸的细辛用于治疗,以防止马兜铃酸的有害影响。
