Abstract

Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome is characterized by the association of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis. This syndrome is a rare cause of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and is a diagnosis of exclusion. In this case report, we presented a 56-year-old female patient, who developed uveitis before kidney involvement and was diagnosed with TINU syndrome due to recurrences. We also briefly reviewed the type of ocular involvement in light of literature.

Özet

Tubulointerstisyel nefrit ve üveit (TINU) sendromu, akut tubulointerstisyel nefrit ve üveit birlikteliği ile karakterizedir. Bu sendrom akut tubulointerstisyel nefritin nadir bir nedeni olup diğer sebeplerin dışlanmasıyla tanı alır. Bu olgu sunumunda böbrek tutulumundan önce üveit gelişen ve nüks nedeniyle TINU sendromu tanısı konan 56 yaşında bir kadın hasta sunuldu. Ayrıca literatür ışığında oküler tutulum tipini kısaca gözden geçirdik.
