  • Title: Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy: a case study.
    Author: Dundová I, Treska V, Simanek V, Michal M.
    Journal: Transplant Proc; 2005 Dec; 37(10):4187-90. PubMed ID: 16387074.
    Abstract:
    Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy (NFD) is a rare disease which has only recently been described histopathologically. In the literature only about 100 cases of this disease have been described. NFD occurs most frequently in patients with renal insufficiency or after kidney transplantation. We present a case study of a patient who showed manifestations of NFD in the abdomen after a second transplantation of a cadaver kidney. The diagnosis was determined by an experienced histopathologist after excision of the focus. The authors discuss the etiology and genesis, which is not yet known, diagnosis of this disease and its treatment.
