[Acute tubulo-interstitial nephritis combined with uveitis (clinical case and review of the literature)].

The authors have presented a review of literature and their own data on acute tubulointerstitial nephritis combined with uveitis in a patient aged 47. In foreign literature this combination is defined as a separate syndrome (TIN-uveitis or TINU). The development of nonspecific symptoms (fatigue, weakness, nausea, loss of body mass, pains in the joints, skin rash) was characterized by change in some laboratory indices (raised ESP, anemia, eosinophilia, hyperproteinemia, hypergammaglobulinemia) and nephropathy. The signs of nephropathy were polyuria, a decrease in relative urine density, proteinuria of tubular genesis, renal glucosuria and aminoaciduria. A decrease in glomerular filtration and an increase in the level of blood serum creatinine were noted in most of the cases. In spite of the development of renal failure TINU prognosis is favorable: renal function gets back to normal by itself or after corticosteroid therapy. Uveitis shows a tendency to recurrence. The immune genesis of the TINU syndrome is assumed.
