Acute interstitial nephritis due to Leptospira grippotyphosa in the absence of Weil's disease.

Tanja Schmidhauser1, Simona Curioni2, Enos Bernasconi1.   

Abstract

Anicteric leptospirosis is a self-limited flu-like disease, whereas the icteric form is a severe illness characterized by multiple organ involvement or even failure. A case involving a patient with rapidly progressing renal insufficiency requiring intermittent renal replacement therapy due to Leptospira grippotyphosa in the absence of a Weil's disease is reported.
