Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a rare disease that can present in patients with kidney injury who have been exposed to gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). These patients can easily be misdiagnosed as having another disease because they do not fit the usual presentation of being on hemodialysis. We report a case of NSF occurring in a patient with resolved transient renal insufficiency and no history of chronic renal disease.
肾源性系统性纤维化(NSF)是一种罕见的疾病,可发生于曾接触过基于钆的造影剂(GBCAs)的肾损伤患者中。这些患者很容易被误诊为患有其他疾病,因为他们不符合常规的血液透析患者的表现。我们报告了一例 NSF 病例,发生于一位肾功能一过性不全已恢复且无慢性肾病病史的患者。
