  • Title: [Fulminant acute kidney injury after cholecystectomy in a 45-year-old female patient].
    Author: Mahmud M, Winkelmann C, Harendza S.
    Journal: Internist (Berl); 2019 Apr; 60(4):390-395. PubMed ID: 30209515.
    Abstract:
    A cholecystectomy was carried out on a 45-year-old female patient with fever, myalgia and right upper abdominal pain because of a suspected cholecystitis. Postoperatively acute kidney injury occurred. A comprehensive medical history taken later revealed a presumed occupational contact to rodents. Serological testing detected a recent infection with Dobrava-Belgrade hantavirus. The kidney function normalized with supportive therapeutic measures. Hantavirus infection should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute kidney injury combined with fever, myalgia and abdominal pain.
