Role of colour Doppler in predicting foetal outcome in maternal anaemia.

Context: Anaemia is the most common nutritional deficiency in Indian pregnant females. It ensues foetal hypoxia resulting in different compensatory mechanisms in the foetus which may result in adverse perinatal outcomes. Colour Doppler can be used to measure these hemodynamic changes of the foetus ahead of the clinical manifestations, guiding the obstetrician for the appropriate management and circumventing any dire complication.

Nocardiosis in Renal Transplantation: Case Series from India.

Nocardiosis is a rare opportunistic infection seen in kidney transplant patients and is caused by aerobic actinomycete. Disease manifestations can vary from a localized infection to multisystem organ failure. In this retrospective case series, we present 16 cases of Nocardiosis.

Atypical HUS Triggered by COVID-19: A Case Report.

We hereby present a case of an atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) precipitated by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). A 26-year-old male was diagnosed with COVID-19 and acute kidney injury. His kidney biopsy was suggestive of thrombotic microangiopathy.

Short- and long-term outcomes of early initiation of peritoneal dialysis following catheter insertion.

Introduction: Early-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) (use of PD catheter within 48 hours of insertion) is an innovative approach for prompt initiation of PD.

Aim: This study was conducted to analyze the outcomes of early-start PD.

Materials And Methods: A total of 100 patients on PD were retrospectively analyzed.

Chylous Ascites after Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy: Case Report.

Chylous ascites refers to the accumulation of chyle in the abdominal cavity. Postoperative chylous ascites is most commonly associated with abdominal aortic surgeries. However, it is a rare complication following laparoscopic nephrectomy.

IgA Nephropathy with Wilson's Disease: A Case Report and Literature Review.

The most common glomerulonephritis seen in the world is immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). It can be primary or secondary associated with various conditions like Chronic Liver disease, Crohn's disease, neoplasms, etc. However, IgAN secondary to Wilson's disease is very rare.

Double whammy: anticoagulant-related nephropathy with leukocytoclastic vasculitis due to warfarin.

Anticoagulation-related nephropathy (ARN) is a rare form of acute kidney injury where the use of anticoagulation causes hemorrhage in various compartments of nephron including glomerulus, renal tubules, and interstitial compartment. Also, warfarin-induced vasculitis is an extremely rare condition characterized by the appearance of purpuric lesions on the skin which on biopsy are suggestive of leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LV). We hereby report a case presenting with coexistent warfarin-induced nephropathy and cutaneous vasculitis.

COVID-19 Infection in Renal Transplant Patients: Early Report From India.

Introduction: COVID -19 has gripped the whole world and patients with comorbidities especially kidney ailments are at higher risk of developing severe disease. Among kidney disease, transplant patients are the most vulnerable group. Information on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in kidney transplant patients is very limited.

CMV presenting as a skin growth in renal transplant patient.

CMV infection is one of the most common opportunistic infection in kidney transplant patients. If not treated, it is associated with increased mortality and graft loss. It can present as viremia or CMV disease in the form of CMV syndrome or tissue invasive CMV disease.
