Vancomycin-Associated Tubular Casts and Vancomycin Nephrotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International Reports, 2021
Vancomycin nephrotoxicity is frequent and may be due to drug-induced acute tubular necrosis (ATN) or tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN). Vancomycin-associated tubular cast (VTC) was recently described and may represent a novel cause of vancomycin nephrotoxicity. However, much is still unknown about VTC.Thirty-seven kidney biopsy specimens from patients
