Klemmer PJ, Harris AA: Carbon disulfide nephropathy. Am J Kidney Dis. 2000 Sep;36(3):626-9.
A 45-year-old nondiabetic man presented with features resembling diabetic triopathy. He worked in a rayon manufacturing plant and was exposed to toxic levels of carbon disulfide (CS (2)). Clinical abnormalities included peripheral and central nervous system abnormalities as well as retinopathy, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, and nephrotic syndrome. He later developed focal sclerosing glomerulonephritis. The latter has not previously been described in cases of CS (2) exposure. Terminally, he developed end-stage renal disease and progressive dementia, both of which were thought to be consequences of CS (2) exposure earlier in life. |
