An Interesting Case of Aplastic Anemia and Acute Kidney Injury
Dr. Sathyasagar Kalidoss | Dr. Myviziselvi
Abstract: Renal hemosiderosis is deposition of hemosiderin pigment in the renal tubular cells. Renal hemosiderosis as a cause of renal failure is rare and usually occurs in conditions where there is chronic intra vascular hemolysis or chronic iron overload as a result of repeated blood transfusions. In most of the cases it is only an incidental finding during post mortem examination of patients with hemolytic anemia with intra vascular hemolysis. During episodes of intra vascular hemolysis AKI can occur as a result of acute tubular necrosis.
Keywords: Acute kidney injury, intra vascular hemolysis, renal hemosiderosis
