Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most dreaded complications of severe malaria. Herein, we report a case of spontaneous resolution of AKI due to collapsing glomerulopathy (CG) and hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) associated with P. falciparum malaria. Our case report highlights the fact that early intervention on the triggering cause of CG without a long course of steroids may obtain a remission of this severe subset of CG and may obtain a remission of HUS without therapeutic plasmapheresis The etiologic treatment of CG and HUS may avoid progression to end-stage renal disease.
急性肾损伤(AKI)是重症疟疾最可怕的并发症之一。在此,我们报告一例因恶性疟原虫疟疾相关的塌陷性肾小球病(CG)和溶血尿毒综合征(HUS)导致的AKI自发缓解病例。我们的病例报告强调了这样一个事实,即对CG的触发原因进行早期干预而无需长期使用类固醇,可能使这种严重亚型的CG得到缓解,并且在不进行治疗性血浆置换的情况下也可能使HUS得到缓解。CG和HUS的病因治疗可能避免进展至终末期肾病。
