Resumen
ORTEGA MARTINEZ, Rommer Alex et al. GLOMERULONEFRITIS POR INMUNOCOMPLEJOS EN LA ENDOCARDITIS INFECCIOSA. Gac Med Bol [online]. 2005, vol.28, n.2, pp.61-66. ISSN 1012-2966.
Patients with infective endocarditis can develop three different forms of renal disease: post infectious immune complex mediated glomerulonephritis, drug induced acute intersticial nephritis or acute tubular necrosis due to aminoglucoside toxicity and renal embolic disease. Inmune complex glomerulonephritis is similar to post estreptococal glomerulonephritis or membrano proliferative glomerulonephritis with long standing and persistent antigenemia. The clinical manifestations are similar to those of other forms of glomerulonephritis. We present the case of a patient who fulfilled most criteria of immune complex mediated glomerulonephritis. emphasizing the fact that the alterations in renal function and urinary sediment resolved with the resolution of the primary disease.
