Abstract
A patient with a history of type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia has renal failure with large kidneys. The patient refused kidney biopsy to determine the aetiology of her renal failure. She uses peritoneal dialysis to treat renal failure. She received rituximab and bendamustine to treat chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Adenopathy resolves with treatment and she does not experience any electrolyte disturbances or decrease in urine output as a result of chemotherapy in the setting of renal failure. Renal function did not recover with chemotherapy.Entities:
