  • Title: Acute tubulointerstitial nephritis in a patient with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.
    Author: Pasternack A, Helin H, Vänttinen T, Järventie G, Vesikari T.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 1979; 11(1):85-7. PubMed ID: 419374.
    Abstract:
    A 26-year-old man developed pneumonia, hepatitis and biopsy-verified acute tubulointerstitial nephritis coinciding with a rise and fall of complement-fixing antibodies to Mycoplasma pneumoniae. M. pneumoniae antigenic material and complement (C3) in the renal interstitium were shown by immunohistochemical techniques. A causal relationship between M. pneumoniae infection and the renal lesion is suggested.
