A nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor blocker, esaxerenone, was added to these medications, again resulting in a decrease in urinary protein excretion.

Massive acetaminophen poisoning has been treated successfully with adjunctive therapies such as fomepizole and hemodialysis. Fomepizole functions by inhibiting cytochrome p560, which prevents tylenol from forming its toxic metabolite, NAPQI. Prior cases have demonstrated favorable outcomes and a significant drop in acetaminophen levels after a single session of intermittent hemodialysis and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH). However, the recommended dosage adjustments of NAC and fomepizole while a patient is undergoing CVVH has not been well reported. We present a case of an 18-year-old male who presented after ingesting 125 g of tylenol. His 4-hour acetaminophen level was 738.6 µg/mL. He was treated with NAC, fomepizole, and a single 4-hour session of hemodialysis. His acetaminophen level remained elevated at 730 µg/mL despite the hemodialysis session. CVVH was initiated, and he was given intravenous NAC at 12.5 mg/kg/h, oral NAC at 70 mg/kg every 4 hours, and intravenous fomepizole at 10 mg/kg every 6 hours. His tylenol levels became undetectable 57 hours after ingestion, and he did not develop permanent liver toxicity. This case encourages the use of CVVH for massive tylenol ingestion when a single run of intermittent hemodialysis is not effective in lowering the tylenol level. NAC, fomepizole, and CVVH can prevent unfavorable outcomes in massive acetaminophen ingestion when provided at an appropriate dose and frequency.</p>","PeriodicalId":510898,"journal":{"name":"Clinical nephrology.

Different studies identified AL amyloidosis as the most frequent renal lesion, followed by cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis. Signs and symptoms may be unspecific, as well as renal manifestations, so collaboration between nephrologists, hematologists, and pathologists is crucial to establish the role of paraprotein in the development of renal damage. We present an atypical case of Waldenström's disease that had a minimal monoclonal peak and clinically debuted with nephritic and nephrotic syndromes.

We report a case of a 29-year-old women in whom a unique constellation of hematological disorders occurred. The patient had been diagnosed with idiopathic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in 2007, with a history of several thrombocytopenic flares. She now presented with homonymous hemianopia accompanied by thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) and was soon after diagnosed with a posterior stroke. Symptoms were more reminiscent of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP) rather than ITP. Immediate treatment with plasma exchange and caplacizumab curtailed MAHA, and progressive ischemic disease was averted. ADAMTS-13 testing confirmed the diagnosis of immune-mediated aTTP. Repeated testing for ITP, however, also showed IgG-loaded thrombocytes with the former known anti-GPIIb/IIIa specificity. Furthermore, autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) could be detected by direct antiglobulin test showing IgG and complement loading of the patient's erythrocytes. The autoimmune background of all three entities suggested an underlying systemic disease. Indeed, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) serology was strongly positive allowing for the diagnosis of SLE. ITP and AIHA as well as aTTP can be secondary to SLE, but emergence of all three disorders has not been reported at the same time.</p>","PeriodicalId":510898,"journal":{"name":"Clinical nephrology.
