Abstract:
:We report on 10 patients with acute renal involvement in Hantaan virus infection observed at the Department of Nephrology, Faculty of Medicine, Skopje, Republic of Macedonia, during a period of 3 years (October 1987-July 1990). Eight patients were male and 2 were female, aged 37.5 +/- 4.8 years. The diagnosis of Hantaan virus infection was proven by an indirect immunofluorescent and ELISA test with a significant increase of the titer after a week to ranges from 1:512 to 1:2,048. Percutaneous renal biopsy was performed in 3 cases using standard procedures for optical and immunofluorescent microscopy. Fever, weakness, headache, conjunctival injection, hematuria, and lumbar pain were clinical features all patients had in common. Complete anuria was noted in 7 out of 10 and oliguria in the other 3 of the 10 cases with serum levels of creatinine 967 +/- 152.6 mumol/L. Other following laboratory findings were leukocytosis in 10 out of 10 patients, with neutrophylia, and reduction of serum sodium and potassium in 8 out of 10, and a decrease in serum complement C3 in 3 out of 10 patients. Percutaneous renal biopsy confirmed interstitionephritis in 2 out of 3 biopsied patients and acute diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis in the third. Interstitial mononuclear infiltration with dominant T cells proven with monoclonal antisera (direct immunoperoxidase method) was present in all 3 cases. The outcome of the disease was good in 8 of the 10 patients with a development of polyuric phase and complete recovery of renal function later. One patient with interstitial lesions on biopsy developed chronic renal failure, and the other with a concomitant brucellosis died during the polyuric phase of the disease.
