Pos-029 Autoimmune Hypothyroidism Revealed by Acute Kidney Injury: Case Report
Year: 2022
Type: conference-abstract
Abstract: Although the clinic is often indicative of muscle manifestations in patients with hypothyroidism, the signs and symptoms of this impairment vary from simple elevated serum levels of muscle enzymes with myalgia, muscle weakness and rhabdomyolysis to kidney injury which remains a rather rare manifestation. Hypothyroidism leads to significant kidney changes whose pathophysiology seems to be multifactorial while the exact mechanism is poorly elucidated . We report the case of acute renal injury in a 42-year-old patient revealing autoimmune hypothyroidism.
