A young female with Plasmodium vivax malaria presented with anemia, hyperbilirubinemia, thrombocytopenia, and advanced renal failure. She remained anuric for more than 3 weeks. Kidney biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of acute cortical necrosis. During follow-up, she became dialysis independent, but remained in stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) at 3 month. P. vivax is supposed to be benign in nature, but can lead to rare and severe complication like renal cortical necrosis and progress to CKD.
一名患有间日疟原虫疟疾的年轻女性出现贫血、高胆红素血症、血小板减少和晚期肾衰竭。她无尿超过3周。肾活检确诊为急性皮质坏死。在随访期间,她不再需要透析,但在3个月时仍处于慢性肾脏病4期。间日疟原虫通常被认为性质良性,但可导致如肾皮质坏死等罕见且严重的并发症,并进展为慢性肾脏病。
