BACKGROUND: Osmotic nephrosis is a form of renal tubular injury that has been found in patients treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG).
CASE: A 46-year-old male who had two courses of chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia was found to have refractory thrombocytopenia. After IVIG (Sandoglobulin 12%, Novartis) administration (1 g/kg) for five consecutive days, the patient became oliguric and eventually anuric on the fifth dose. Hemodialysis was initiated, and urine production was noted on day 2 of hospitalization. Routine cytologic examination of fresh, voided urine showed numerous macrophagelike, bland epithelial cells with abundant, multivacuolated cytoplasm. Cytokeratin immunostain revealed positivity, thus confirming the epithelial origin of these cells.
CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the first such case reported in the English-language cytology literature. Awareness of a patient's clinical history may be helpful in avoiding an incorrect diagnosis. Urine cytology may be useful in obtaining an early diagnosis of osmotic nephrosis in patients receiving high-dose IVIG therapy that may eliminate the need for a renal biopsy.
