This report describes a rare case of anuric acute kidney injury related to suspected urate nephropathy in a 23-year-old male with chronic phase of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). The patient presented with anuria and limb edema, with a history of imatinib-treated CML. Investigations revealed probable urate crystals causing bilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureters.

Background: To evaluate the outcomes of first-line imatinib versus nilotinib treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP) in real-world clinical practice.
Methods: A propensity score analysis was performed to eliminate imbalances between the treatment groups. In the analysis, 163 patients in the nilotinib group and 163 patients in the matched imatinib group were retrospectively evaluated.
Breakpoint cluster region-Abelson () gene fusion is an essential oncogene in both chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia-positive (Ph) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). While tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective in up to 95% of CML patients, 50% of Ph B-ALL cases do not respond to treatment or relapse. This calls for new therapeutic approaches for Ph B-ALL.
