Recurrent Fanconi Syndrome Induced by Lenalidomide: A Case Report.

Fanconi syndrome (FS) is a complex disorder characterized by a reabsorption defect in the proximal renal tubule (PT), leading to urinary loss of molecules such as glucose, phosphate, calcium, amino acids, bicarbonate, potassium, and low-molecular-weight proteins. Its etiology can be genetic or acquired, with drug toxicity being a significant cause of the acquired forms. The heterogeneous manifestations of FS, whether in its partial or complete form, can pose challenges in the emergency department; nevertheless, it should be considered in certain patients, as understanding its cause is crucial for initiating effective treatment.

The ERA-EDTA Registry Annual Report 2017: a summary.

Background: This article presents a summary of the 2017 Annual Report of the European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) Registry and describes the epidemiology of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in 37 countries.

Methods: The ERA-EDTA Registry received individual patient data on patients undergoing RRT for ESRD in 2017 from 32 national or regional renal registries and aggregated data from 21 registries. The incidence and prevalence of RRT, kidney transplantation activity and survival probabilities of these patients were calculated.

[Diagnosis and treatment of nephrolithiasis and prevention of recurrences].

despite fluctuations, the prevalence of nephrolithiasis has significantly increased during the last decades in industrialized nations worldwide (1 to 15 %), which has a significant impact on the cost of healthcare. This increased prevalence is mainly explained by diet modifications. Environmental, metabolic and genetic factors may also influence the formation of kidney stones.
