Article Synopsis
- - This case report details an unusual instance of acute kidney injury (AKI) along with nephrotic syndrome in a Pacific Islander who also had acute HIV and hepatitis B virus (HBV) coinfections, ultimately requiring hemodialysis.
- - The patient fully recovered and ceased dialysis after receiving high-dose steroids and antiviral treatment, with the renal biopsy showing signs of both HIV-associated and HBV-associated nephropathy, as well as significant CD8 lymphocyte infiltration.
- - The report underscores management challenges, particularly regarding the decision to start antiviral treatment alongside immunosuppressive therapy, and notes that combined nephropathy in HIV-HBV co-infection is extremely rare and has not been previously reported.
