Abstract

Objective

To investigate the incidence of tubulointerstitial injury in lupus nephritis (LN) and to examine clinicopathological factors that could indicate the presence of tubulointerstitial injury.

Methods

This study included 98 patients with LN. Clinical data and the pathological results of the initial renal biopsy were collected.

Results

The frequency of each tubulointerstitial injury parameter was over 50%, except for the interstitial edema, in the 98 patients investigated in this study. The most frequently detected tubulointerstitial injury parameter was tubular atrophy in this study. Neutrophil infiltration/karyorrhexis, wire loop lesion, and arteriosclerosis were observed frequently in patients with tubulointerstitial injuries. High serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were observed more frequently in patients with tubulointerstitial injuries except tubular degeneration. The multivariable regression analysis showed a relationship between neutrophil infiltration/karyorrhexis and interstitial fibrosis/tubular degeneration, a relationship between wire loop lesion and tubulointerstitial inflammation/edema, and a relationship between arteriosclerosis and tubulointerstitial injuries (except interstitial edema). Patients with tubular degeneration had lower D-Dimer levels compared with those without. Patients with interstitial fibrosis had higher blood leukocyte counts than those without. The rate of low response to therapy was 13% among those without tubulointerstitial inflammation, but 35% in those with interstitial inflammation (P = 0.03).

Conclusion

Acute and chronic renal tubulointerstitial lesions are often found along with glomerular and vascular lesions. Immune and vascular factors are probably involved in tubulointerstitial injuries. Tubulointerstitial inflammation may be the initiator of chronic renal injury and may predict response to therapy.

Key Points
•To provide a theoretical basis for tubulointerstitial injury in LN.

Echinokokkose medikamentös behandeln oder operieren?

06.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren.

Umsetzung der POMGAT-Leitlinie läuft

03.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Seit November 2023 gibt es evidenzbasierte Empfehlungen zum perioperativen Management bei gastrointestinalen Tumoren (POMGAT) auf S3-Niveau. Vieles wird schon entsprechend der Empfehlungen durchgeführt. Wo es im Alltag noch hapert, zeigt eine Umfrage in einem Klinikverbund.

Proximale Humerusfraktur: Auch 100-Jährige operieren?

01.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Mit dem demographischen Wandel versorgt auch die Chirurgie immer mehr betagte Menschen. Von Entwicklungen wie Fast-Track können auch ältere Menschen profitieren und bei proximaler Humerusfraktur können selbst manche 100-Jährige noch sicher operiert werden.
