Resumen

BENITEZ LLANES, Orestes; CASTANER MORENO, Juan; TELLO ALEA, Rolando  y  VALDES SALAGARTE, Alicia. Insuficiencia renal aguda por inmunoglobulina A. Rev cubana med [online]. 1996, vol.35, n.2, pp.136-139. ISSN 0034-7523.

A case of a 20-year old, white patient in whom an association of macroscopic hematuria with acute renal failure was observed is reported. The percutaneous renal biopsy performed later evidenced the occurrence of a IgA nephropathy. The frequency of this complication is rare. It has been suggested that the mechanical obstruction caused by the hematic cylinders and/or their toxicity on tubular cells could play a very important pathogenic role. The most significant events that drew our attention in this case was the intensity of hematuria and its prolonged duration, the degree of renal failure, and the subsequent recovery of the renal function.

Palabras clave : HEMATURIA; KIDNEY FAILURE, ACUTE.
