  • Title: The "dialysis encephalopathy syndrome" without dialysis.
    Author: Etheridge WB, O'Neill WM.
    Journal: Clin Nephrol; 1978 Dec; 10(6):250-2. PubMed ID: 729218.
    Abstract:
    A patient with end stage renal failure is presented who developed a constellation of neurologic symptoms and signs indistinguishable from those described in the dialysis encephalopathy syndrome. In this patient the syndrome appeared before dialysis therapy had been instituted. This case suggests that "dialysis encephalopathy syndrome" may not be a complication of hemodialysis, but rather a rare complication of the uremic state.
