Abstract:
The authors report a case of non-reversing acute renal failure following a carbon monoxide poisoning in a 28-year-old woman with a previous history of pyelonephritis. The renal biopsy reveals an IgA nephropathy with interstitial and tubular changes. The mechanism of this exceptional complication is discussed.
