Nephrotic syndrome induced by aortic regurgitation with Takayasu arteritis: an autopsy case with long-term clinical follow-up.
Takayasu arteritis is a rare, chronic, and large-vessel vasculitis involving the aorta and its branches in a complex autoimmune reaction. Takayasu arteritis sometimes complicates aortic regurgitation and chronic kidney disease, but rarely accompanies nephrotic syndrome. We had a patient with Takayasu arteritis and concomitant aortic regurgitation. She had nephrotic syndrome that was refractory to immunosuppressive therapy but was promptly improved after surgical aortic valve replacement. In her kidney biopsy, glomeruli had mild mesangial proliferative changes without immune complex deposition. Her proteinuria remained negative until the recurrence of aortic regurgitation due to perivalvular leakage. Seventeen years after the surgery, she died suddenly. In her kidney autopsy, the arteriolar showed severe hyalinosis and the glomerulus showed mesangial proliferative changes with segmental mesangiolysis. Severe aortic regurgitation may have altered renal hemodynamics and caused glomerular lesions, resulting in nephrotic syndrome. We should be aware of the rare but critical comorbidity of nephrotic syndrome in patients with Takayasu arteritis and concomitant aortic regurgitation.
期刊介绍:
Clinical and Experimental Nephrology (CEN) Case Reports is a peer-reviewed online-only journal, officially published biannually by the Japanese Society of Nephrology (JSN). The journal publishes original case reports in nephrology and related areas. The purpose of CEN Case Reports is to provide clinicians and researchers with a forum in which to disseminate their personal experience to a wide readership and to review interesting cases encountered by colleagues all over the world, from whom contributions are welcomed.
