Abstract:
The administration of antineoplastic agents are associated with various vascular events. A case of acute bilateral renal infarction in a patient with non-small cell lung carcinoma during chemotherapy with cisplatin and gemcitabine is reported. The patient was misdiagnosed as having renal colic. To our knowledge, bilateral renal infarction following cisplatin and gemcitabine has not been reported previously. Renal infarction should be considered in the differential diagnosis of flank pain in a patient treated with gemcitabine and cisplatin.

Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...

Glomerulus: Structure and Function
The glomerulus is a tiny, intricate network of capillaries located at the beginning of the nephron. It's enveloped by the Bowman's capsule and receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole, which divides into numerous...
Renal Clearance
Renal clearance refers to the volume of plasma cleared of a specific substance, such as creatinine, per unit of time. To measure clearance, urine samples are collected over a 24-hour period during each bladder voiding, followed by a single blood sample at the...
Renal Drug Clearance: Comparison Between Renal Excretion Methods
Renal clearance is often associated with the renal glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which represents the rate at which plasma is filtered through the glomeruli in the kidney. When drug reabsorption is minimal and there is no active secretion, renal clearance is closely related to the...
