Title: [Anuric tubular nephritis caused by rifampicin allergy]. Author: Wahl D, Menaut P, Roche G, Alphonse JC, Molina C. Journal: Poumon Coeur; 1978; 34(6):437-9. PubMed ID: 746030. Abstract: Starting again a Rifampicin treatment gave rise to an acute renal insufficiency, reversible by hemodialysis. This incident resulted from an immunopathological conflict revealed by the presence of anti-Rifampicin antibodies. Renal needle biopsy did not show any immune deposits. The mechanism of these incidents is discussed. Authors draw attention to the necessity of avoiding discontinuous Rifampicin treatment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
