A spurious elevation of serum creatinine level in a patient with Crohn's disease without histologic kidney damage: a case report and review of the literature.
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are prone to develop kidney injury. Renal involvement in IBD patients is usually diagnosed by the measurement of serum creatinine and the estimation of the glomerular filtration rate. We describe a patient with IBD who presented with large fluctuations in his serum creatinine level (~3.0-fold) without significant histologic abnormalities and with a normal cystatin C level. This appears to be related to a high-protein diet and intermittent fasting. Even though the impact of a high-protein diet on mild elevations of the serum creatinine level has been described, large fluctuations in serum creatinine from diet alone, as seen in this case, have never been reported, raising the question about the potential contribution of inflamed bowel on gut absorption or metabolism of creatinine. This case highlights the importance of a detailed history, including the dietary habits, when encountering a patient with increased serum creatinine level, and careful interpretation of serum creatinine in a patient with a creatinine high-protein diet or underlying IBD.
