Abstract EN
A 14-year-old boy presented with asymptomatic right hydronephrosis detected on routine yearly ultrasound examination.
Previously, he had at least two normal renal ultrasonograms, 4 years after remission of acute myeloblastic leukemia, treated by AML-BFM-93 protocol.
A function of the right kidney and no damage on the left was confirmed by a DMSA scan.
Right retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy revealed 3 renal arteries with the lower pole artery lying on the pelviureteric junction.
Histologically chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis was detected.
In the pathogenesis of this severe unilateral renal damage, we suspect the exacerbation of deleterious effects of cytostatic therapy on kidneys with intermittent hydronephrosis.
