Acute kidney injury requiring dialysis: a very unusual presentation of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma

چکیده
Acute kidney injury due to lymphomatous infiltration of the kidneys is uncommon, and it is rarely the initial manifestation of the lymphoma.

Renal biopsy established the diagnosis, and renal function completely recovered after chemotherapy.
