Abstract |
Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome is a rare disease that comprises 4.7% of acute interstitial nephritis. With reno-ocular manifestations, TINU syndrome is accompanied by symptoms such as fever, fatigue, malaise, anorexia, vomiting, and arthralgia. TINU syndrome is reported mainly in children or adolescent girls, and it is rare in adults. Although TINU syndrome can present with multiple renal tubular defects, Fanconi syndrome characterized by generalized impairment of proximal tubular function, leading to renal glucosuria, hyperuricosuria, hyperphosphaturia, proximal renal tubular acidosis, and kaliuresis leading to hypokalemia, has rarely been described. We report a case of TINU syndrome with Fanconi syndrome in a 46-year-old HLA B27-positive Korean woman. |
