Renal failure occurs when the kidneys lose their ability to filter waste products from the blood effectively. It can be classified into two types: acute renal failure (ARF) and chronic renal failure (CRF).
Acute kidney injury develops suddenly and can be caused by pre-renal causes (e.g., hypovolemia, shock), intrinsic renal causes (e.g., acute tubular necrosis), or post-renal causes (e.g., urinary obstruction). In contrast, chronic renal failure progresses gradually over time and is often...

The glomerulus and Bowman's capsule are two essential components of the nephron, which is the functional unit of the kidney. These microscopic structures play a critical role in the process of blood filtration to produce urine.
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...

Summary

Henna body art, while a popular tradition, carries health risks. Excessive application, especially with additives like para-phenylenediamine (PPD), can lead to severe kidney injury and hemolytic anemia.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Nephrology
  • Hematology

Background:

  • Henna body art is a traditional practice in the Middle East and Africa, often used for ceremonies.
  • Natural henna contains Lawsone, but additives like para-phenylenediamine (PPD) are common.
  • These additives pose significant health risks, including severe adverse reactions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a case of acute kidney injury and hemolytic anemia.
  • To highlight the dangers of excessive henna staining, particularly with PPD.

Main Methods:

  • Case report of a female patient.
  • Clinical presentation and laboratory findings following extensive henna application.

Main Results:

  • The patient developed acute kidney injury (AKI).
  • Acute hemolytic anemia was diagnosed.
  • Symptoms occurred after excessive pre-wedding henna staining of limbs.

Conclusions:

  • Excessive henna staining, especially with PPD, can cause severe health complications.
  • Awareness of potential risks associated with henna body art is crucial.
  • Prompt medical attention is necessary for individuals experiencing adverse reactions.
