Mp31-03 combination of prednisolone with silodosin is efficient and safe treatment for passage of lower ureteric stones than silodosin alone
Medical expulsive therapy has now become an established modality of treatment for lower ureteric stones using different drugs that act on ureter by different mechanisms thus reducing the need for minimally invasive surgery. We aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of Silodosin and Silodosin with Prednisolone as medical expulsive therapy for distal ureteric stones.

Management of Idiopathic Retroperitoneal Fibrosis, a Retrospective Study at Prince Hussein Urology and Organ transplantation center (PHUO), Jordan.
CONCLUSION: Glucocorticoids is the the mainstay of treatment. Therenal function tests, of the vast majority of patients, normalizedwith treatment. Relapse may occur, so a follow-up over a longperiod of time is required. A high index of suspicion is neededfor diagnosis in asymptomatic patients. PMID: 31422391 [PubMed - in process]

Concurrent minimal change disease and retroperitoneal liposarcoma successfully treated by tumor resection and steroid therapy
AbstractA 54-year-old Japanese woman developed simultaneous abdominal distension and bilateral leg edema. Her medical history and results of periodic medical check-up were unremarkable. Blood tests revealed severe hypoproteinemia and acute kidney injury, and urinalysis revealed 4+ proteinuria and 2+ hematuria. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a large intra-abdominal mass with fat tissue density. She underwent emergency tumor excision, splenectomy, and distal pancreatectomy. However, hypoproteinemia and acute kidney injury worsened. Therefore, she was transferred to the nephrology division for confirmation of diagnosi...

Rhino-orbitocerebral mucormycosis in a patient with idiopathic crescentic glomerulonephritis.
We describe a 47-year-old man with crescentic glomerulonephritis on maintenance prednisolone therapy. He had earlier received steroid and cyclophosphamide pulse therapies. Renal functions improved following immunosuppressive treatment. In the third month of maintenance therapy, he presented to us with left-sided facial swelling and bloody nasal discharge. He had high blood sugar and acidic blood pH (ketoacidosis), probably due to steroid therapy. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head and sinuses showed inflammation and mass in the ethmoid sinus and nose with partial septal destruction, proptosis, global destruction of the...

Skin rash in a patient with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody vasculitis
An 86-year-old woman with a medical history of chronic kidney disease (stage 3B) and treated hypertension was admitted to our hospital for the treatment of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis associated with myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody. She also had a history of spinal tuberculosis during her 50s, which remained in complete remission for decades. At this admission, her Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score was 14. Following induction therapy with prednisolone (20 mg) and high-dose i.v.

Bone mineral density in children with relapsing nephrotic syndrome: A hospital-based study.
Abstract This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted from January 2012 to November 2014 in the Department of Pediatric Nephrology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, to evaluate the bone mineral density (BMD) values in children with relapsing nephrotic syndrome (NS). Thirty relapsing nephrotic patients were enrolled in this study. They were divided into two groups: Group I - Frequent Relapse (FR) with 21 patients and Group II - Infrequent Relapse (IFR) with nine patients. Children included were both males and females aged between four and 15 years with relapsing NS with normal ...

Early- vs. late-onset treatment using abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in chemo-na ïve, asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic patients with metastatic CRPC after androgen deprivation therapy.
CONCLUSIONS:  In contrast to the new definition of castration resistance, AA + P was still more frequently used in daily clinical practice during the study observation period in patients treated with antiandrogens of the first generation after occurrence of castration resistance. Nevertheless, AA + P therapy appears to be effective and well tolerated during clinical routine in mCRPC patients. A comparison of the study results with earlier 'real-world' studies, however, has to take limiting factors into account. The observed difference in median overall survival might be explained by the imbalance of baseline char...

Complete Renal Recovery in Pediatric Patient with C3 Glomerulonephritis: A Case Report
C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN) is a rare kidney disease resulting from dysregulation of the alternative complement cascade. Without treatment, approximately 70% of affected children and 30 –50% of affected adults will develop worsening of proteinuria and progress to end-stage renal disease within 10 years of diagnosis. Here, we describe a 9-year-old Sudanese girl with no significant past medical history who presented to the Emergency Department with a 2-month history of fatigue, poo r oral intake, and worsening facial and lower extremity edema, and subsequently found to have anemia, hypoalbuminemia, microscopic hematuria, ...

New-onset kidney biopsy-proven IgA vasculitis after receiving mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine: case report
AbstractAs mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have become widely available, cases of new-onset glomerular disease after receiving COVID-19 vaccination have been reported. Here, we present a case of kidney biopsy-proven new-onset IgA vasculitis after receiving the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) COVID-19 vaccination. A 47-year-old man with a 10-year medical history of hypertension and hyperuricemia visited our hospital 19  days after receiving an initial mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine injection for purpuric eruption on the legs and dorsal regions of the feet. Although the eruptions spontaneously improved within 5 days, they developed again at 15 da...

IgA nephropathy diagnosed as a result of acute exacerbation due to G-CSF administration
We report a case of immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy that was aggravated by G-CSF. A 56-year-old Japanese man with no relevant medical history was admitted to our hospital as a donor of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) for transplantation. To mobilize PBSCs, he received subcutaneous G-CSF (lenograstim), 500  μg for 4 days. Three days after the first dose of lenograstim, gross hematuria appeared, and after administration on the fourth day, renal dysfunction and nephrotic-range proteinuria were observed. Renal biopsy and light microscopic study revealed mild mesangial proliferation with expansion in a ssociation with...

Isolated Renal Involvement by IG4-Related Disorder Mimicking Multiple Myeloma, a Diagnosis Not to Miss
Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl. 2021 Jan-Feb;32(1):249-254. doi: 10.4103/1319-2442.318534.ABSTRACTIG4-related disorder (IgG4-RD) with isolated kidney involvement is rare. IG4-RD is a fibroinflammatory disorder leading to polyclonal activation of plasma cell and can affect kidney, orbital tissues, salivary glands, pancreas, bile duct, lymph nodes, and can cause inflammatory mass in any organ. Isolated kidney involvement is rare in this order. We share a case of isolated kidney involvement by this order presenting as enlarged kidneys with renal impairment. Kidney biopsy showed CD138 plasma cell interstitial nephritis. The biopsy...
