Abstract
Purpose: Renal injury is common in cancer patients and its etiology is multifactorial. Different patterns of renal histological lesions have been described in relation to oncologic treatments, notably acute tubular necrosis and tubulointerstitial nephritis, but also thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA).
Methods: We report a case of TMA secondary to capecitabine in an 82-year-old woman diagnosed with localized colon adenocarcinoma.
Results: The patient, with previous normal kidney function, presented with renal impairment during the fourth cycle of chemotherapy. After potential nephrotoxic factors were ruled out, capecitabine was discontinued and a kidney biopsy was performed, which displayed TMA lesions. An improvement in renal function was observed after definitive cessation of cytotoxic chemotherapy. Although rare, renal toxicity in the form of TMA may be associated with the use of cytotoxic agents such as gemcitabine, but there is no reported evidence of its association to capecitabine. Early withdrawal of the drug and nephrology consultation is necessary to prevent irreversible damage.
Conclusion: We describe, to our knowledge, the first case reported in the literature regarding the possible association of TMA and capecitabine.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Gastrointestinal Cancer is a multidisciplinary medium for the publication of novel research pertaining to cancers arising from the gastrointestinal tract.The journal is dedicated to the most rapid publication possible.The journal publishes papers in all relevant fields, emphasizing those studies that are helpful in understanding and treating cancers affecting the esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder and biliary tree, pancreas, small bowel, large bowel, rectum, and anus. In addition, the Journal of Gastrointestinal Cancer publishes basic and translational scientific information from studies providing insight into the etiology and progression of cancers affecting these organs. New insights are provided from diverse areas of research such as studies exploring pre-neoplastic states, risk factors, epidemiology, genetics, preclinical therapeutics, surgery, radiation therapy, novel medical therapeutics, clinical trials, and outcome studies.In addition to reports of original clinical and experimental studies, the journal also publishes: case reports, state-of-the-art reviews on topics of immediate interest or importance; invited articles analyzing particular areas of pancreatic research and knowledge; perspectives in which critical evaluation and conflicting opinions about current topics may be expressed; meeting highlights that summarize important points presented at recent meetings; abstracts of symposia and conferences; book reviews; hypotheses; Letters to the Editors; and other items of special interest, including:Complex Cases in GI Oncology: This is a new initiative to provide a forum to review and discuss the history and management of complex and involved gastrointestinal oncology cases. The format will be similar to a teaching case conference where a case vignette is presented and is followed by a series of questions and discussion points. A brief reference list supporting the points made in discussion would be expected.
