In North America, hantaviruses commonly cause hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). Clinical descriptions of hantavirus-associated renal disease in the Americas are scarce. Herein, we discuss the case of a 61-year-old man whose predominant manifestations were acute kidney injury and proteinuria. Clinical recognition of renal signs in hantavirus infections can reduce risk for death.
在北美,汉坦病毒通常会引发汉坦病毒肺综合征(HPS)。在美洲,关于汉坦病毒相关肾病的临床描述较为匮乏。在此,我们讨论一名61岁男性的病例,其主要表现为急性肾损伤和蛋白尿。对汉坦病毒感染时肾脏体征的临床识别可降低死亡风险。
