18FDG PET/CT imaging of adenovirus-associated acute interstitial nephritis after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation

Clin Case Rep. 2024 Aug 7;12(8):e9110. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.9110. eCollection 2024 Aug.

Abstract

Adenovirus-associated acute interstitial nephritis (AAIN) should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute kidney failure following allogeneic bone marrow transplant. Although not intended for the definitive diagnosis of AAIN, 18FDG PET/CT can be a helpful noninvasive diagnostic tool, especially when a biopsy is not feasible.

Keywords: 18FDG PET/CT; adenovirus; allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant; interstitial nephritis.
