[Interstitial nephritis demonstrated by 67Ga-citrate scintigraphy within a diagnosis of fever of unknown origin]. / Nefritis intersticial demostrada mediante gammagrafía con 67Ga-citrato en el contexto de fiebre de origen desconocido.

We present a clinical case of a 54-year-old woman that was admitted in our hospital with the diagnosis of fever of unknown origin. All the laboratory tests and imaging techniques did not manage to establish the fever's aetiology until a (67)Ga-citrate scan was performed and kidney uptake was observed, which lead to the clinical suspicion of drug-induced interstitial nephritis. The renal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. This finding allowed corticoid therapy and cure.

Exponemos el caso de una paciente mujer de 54 años que ingresó en nuestro hospital para estudio de fiebre de origen desconocido.Todas las pruebas de laboratorio y de imagen no lograron establecer la causa de la fiebre y, al realizar una gammagrafía con 67Ga-citrato, se objetivó captación patológica en los riñones, lo que llevó a la sospecha clínica de nefritis intersticial inducida por medicamentos. La biopsia renal confirmó el diagnóstico. Este hallazgo permitió el tratamiento con corticoides y la curación de la enferma(AU)
