摘要

慢性Q热由贝纳柯克斯体感染引起,临床病例较少,合并肾功能不全的病例报道更罕见。目前国内外关于该病的报道不多,其临床特点和发病机制尚不明确。本文报道1例临床表现为肾病综合征、肾功能受损的慢性Q热患者,肾活检提示为膜增生性肾小球肾炎,经糖皮质激素、环磷酰胺、羟氯喹联合多西环素治疗后,其肾功能得到改善。

Abstract

Chronic Q fever is caused by Coxiella burnetii infection. There are few clinical cases of chronic Q fever, and cases complicated with renal insufficiency are even more rarely reported. At present, there are few reports about this disease both domestically and internationally, and its clinical characteristics and pathogenesis remain unclear. This article reports a case of a chronic Q fever patient with clinical manifestations of nephrotic syndrome and impaired renal function, whose renal biopsy revealed membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. After treatment with glucocorticoid, cyclophosphamide, hydroxychloroquine combined with doxycycline, the patient’s renal function improved.
