The impact of location and patency of the arteriovenous fistula on quality of life of kidney transplant recipients.

abstract：:A 44-year-old man with acute renal failure and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) positivity was described. The first renal biopsy specimen showed tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) with normal glomeruli. However, delayed recovery of renal function with low-dose steroid treatment for TIN prompted a second re...
