Febuxostat and Increased Dialysis as a Treatment for Severe Tophaceous Gout in a Hemodialysis Patient
Uric acid accumulates in renal failure and is thought to be a uremic toxin-that is, higher levels of uric acid are more damaging to the kidneys. Urate crystals can precipitate in the kidney tubules, cause urate stones, and promote inflammatory changes in the renal interstitium and vascular endothelium. Uric acid is also a small non-protein-bound molecule and therefore easily dialyzable. Here, w...
متن کاملHypothyroidism Induced Severe Rhabdomyolysis in a Hemodialysis Patient
Hypothyroidism occurs relatively common and is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality during the course of chronic kidney disease. Rhabdomyolysis is a potentially life-threatening condition characterised by necrosis of muscular tissue and rarely associates with hypothyroidism. Here we describe a case of rhabdomyolysis due to severe hypothyroidism in a 56-year-old female hemodialysis pat...
متن کاملSevere hyperkalemia following colon diversion surgery in a patient undergoing chronic hemodialysis: a case report
INTRODUCTION Potassium (K+) homeostasis in healthy subjects is maintained mainly by urinary excretion of K+. In patients with end-stage renal disease, the intestinal tract might assume an accessory K+ excretory role in the face of declining renal excretory function. Here, we report the case of a patient with end-stage renal disease who developed severe hyperkalemia following colon diversion sur...
متن کاملSevere hyperkalemia following ileostomy not colostomy in a patient undergoing chronic hemodialysis
In patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), the intestinal tract may assume an accessory potassium (K) excretory role in the face of declining renal excretory function. Here, we report the case of a patient with ESRD who developed severe hyperkalemia following ileostomy not colostomy. A 6△-year-old woman undergoing hemodialysis began developing severe hyperkalemia after ileostomy. Previous...

Pregnancy in end stage renal disease women who are on Hemodialysis has been considered a challenging event for both mother and fetus. Generally, outcomes of pregnancy in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have been considered to be extremely poor, and pregnancy in this group of patients is rather scarce. The frequency of conception is ranged from 0.3% per year in Belgium to 1.4% per y...
