Disseminated tuberculosis presenting as a crescentic glomerulonephritis
A 48-year-old male patient presented with dialysis dependent renal failure with biopsy showing crescentic glomerulonephritis and Positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT scan) revealing features of pericardial, pulmonary tuberculosis with positive urinary GeneXpert test for tuberculosis bacilli. Clinicians should keep in mind the atypical presentations of tuberculosis while managing rapidly progressive renal failure especially in tropical countries with high prevalence of tuberculosis.
