Synonyms and keywords: Tubulo-interstitial nephritis

Overview

Interstitial nephritis (or Tubulo-interstitial nephritis) is a form of nephritis affecting the interstitium of the kidneys surrounding the tubules. This disease can be either acute, which means it occurs suddenly or chronic, meaning it is ongoing and eventually ending in kidney failure.

Causes

Common causes include infection, or reaction to medication (such as an analgesic or antibiotics). 71%[1] to 92%[2] of cases are reported to be caused by drugs. This disease is also caused by other diseases and toxins that do damage to the kidney. Both acute and chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis can be caused by a bacterial infection in the kidneys, known as pyelonephritis. The most common cause is by an allergic reaction to a drug. The drugs that are known to cause this sort of reaction are antibiotics such as penicillin, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin. The time between exposure to the drug and the development of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis can be anywhere from 5 days to 5 weeks.

Underlying Causes in Alphabetical Order

Diagnosis

At times there are no symptoms of this disease, but when they do occur they are widely varied and can occur rapidly or gradually[15][1][16][17][18]. When caused by an allergic reaction, the symptoms of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis are fever (27% of patients)[1], rash (15% of patients)[1], and enlarged kidneys. Some people experience dysuria, and lower back pain. In chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis the patient can experience symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and weight loss. Other conditions that may develop include hyperkalemia, metabolic acidosis, and kidney failure.

Blood tests

About 23% of patients have eosinophilia[1].

Urinary findings

Urinary findings include:

Gallium scan

The sensitivity of an abnormal gallium scan has been reported to range from 60%[21] to 100%[22].

Treatment

Remove the etiology such as an offending drug. Corticosteroids do not clearly help [2]. Nutrition therapy consists of adequate fluid intake, which can require several liters of extra fluid.Alexopolos Y (ed.). "39". Krause's Food, Nutrition, & Diet Therapy (11th ed.). Philadelphia Pennsylvania: Saunders. p. 968. ISBN 0-7216-9784-4. Unknown parameter |coauthors= ignored (help)

Prognosis

The kidneys are the only body system that is directly affected by tubulointerstitial nephritis. Kidney function is usually reduced; the kidneys can be just slightly dysfunctional, or fail completely.

In chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis the most serious long term effect is kidney failure. When the proximal tubule is injured sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, uric acid, and phosphate intake may be reduced or changed, resulting in low bicarbonate, known as metabolic acidosis, hypokalemia, low uric acid (hypouricemia, and low phosphate (hypophosphatemia). Damage to the distal renal tubule may cause loss of urine concentrating ability and polyuria.

In most cases of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis, the function of the kidneys will return after the harmful drug is not taken anymore, or when the underlying disease is cured by treatment. If the illness is caused by an allergic reaction, a corticosteroid may speed the recovery kidney function, however this is often not the case. Chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis has no cure. Some patients may require dialysis. Eventually, a kidney transplant may be needed.
