Abstract

Background: Patients with inflammatory disease treated with biological agents are at an increased risk of developing various adverse effects. However, little is known about the risk of nephrotoxicity, such as induced tubulointerstitial nephritis and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases involving the interstitium and renal tubule.

Case report: We herein describe a case of biopsy-proven tubulointerstitial nephritis, induced by PR3-ANCA-associated vasculitis following adalimumab therapy in a patient with Crohn's disease and ankylosing spondylitis. We review the current evidence on adalimumab-induced nephrotoxicity and the potential underlying mechanisms.

Conclusion: Monitoring of renal function is strongly recommended in all patients treated with adalimumab. Early diagnosis of drug-induced tubulointerstitial nephritis due to vasculitis and immediate withdrawal of the offending drug are key to renal recovery and prevention from irreversible serious organ damage.

小管间质性肾炎合并anca相关性血管炎是阿达木单抗罕见的不良反应：1例报告。

背景：使用生物制剂治疗炎症性疾病的患者发生各种不良反应的风险增加。然而，对肾毒性的风险知之甚少，例如诱导的小管间质性肾炎和涉及间质和肾小管的免疫介导的炎症性疾病。病例报告：我们在此描述一例活检证实的小管间质性肾炎，在阿达木单抗治疗后由pr3 - anca相关血管炎诱导的克罗恩病和强直性脊柱炎患者。我们回顾了目前关于阿达木单抗引起的肾毒性及其潜在机制的证据。结论：强烈建议所有接受阿达木单抗治疗的患者监测肾功能。早期诊断由血管炎引起的药物性小管间质性肾炎并立即停用药物是恢复肾脏和防止不可逆的严重器官损害的关键。
