Glutamyl Transferase

Light chain deposition disease (LCDD) is a rare multisystemic disorder associated with plasma cell proliferation. It mainly affects the kidney, but liver and heart involvement may occur, sometimes mimicking the picture of systemic amyloidosis. Liver disease in LCDD is usually asymptomatic and exceptionally manifests with severe cholestatic hepatitis. We report the case of a 66-year-old female with κ-LCDD and cast nephropathy in the setting of symptomatic multiple myeloma who, after a first cycle of bortezomib-dexamethasone chemotherapy, developed severe and rapidly worsening intrahepatic cholestasis secondary to liver κ-light chain deposition. Intrahepatic cholestasis was attributed to LCDD on the basis of the liver histology and exclusion of possible diagnoses. Chemotherapy was maintained and resulted in progressive resolution of cholestasis. We report here an uncommon presentation of LCDD, with prominent liver involvement that fully recovered with bortezomib-based chemotherapy, and briefly review the relevant literature.

A 42-year-old woman presented with chronic fever, abdominal pain, intermittent loose stools and dysuria for 3 months. She had recently developed acute dyspnoea with acute kidney injury. She was found to have a contracted, thick-walled bladder with bilateral hydroureteronephrosis. She underwent bilateral percutaneous nephrostomies, following which her renal function recovered. She satisfied the clinical and immunological features of the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). She was initiated on immunosuppression. Lupus cystitis with a contracted bladder is an uncommon presentation of SLE.

Abstract Purpose To investigate the etiologies and the clinical characteristics of angle-closure glaucoma (ACG) patients younger than 40 years old in Chinese. Methods Inpatients with diagnosis of ACG and diagnosed age younger than or equal to 40 years old, who were admitted in Eye, Ear, Nose, and Throat Hospital Fudan University from 2002 to 2017, were included in this retrospective non-comparative case series. The underlying causes and clinical features for all the patients were analyzed by comprehensive review of medical charts. Results A total of 298 patients (463 eyes) met the criteria, including 153 females (51.3%) and 145 males (48.7%); the mean age was 25.6 ± 13.0 years. Primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG), uveitis, and anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD) were the top three etiologies in our patients, which accounted for 32.6%, 20.3%, and 15.1% of the total patients respectively. PACG mainly occurs after 30 years of age and ASD is the top reason of ACG in patients younger than 20 years old. Other known etiologies include iridocorneal endothelial syndrome, neovascular glaucoma, nanophthalmos, retinitis pigmentosa, spherophakia, bestrophinopathy, persistent fetal vasculature, iridociliary cysts, congenital retinoschisis, Marfan’s syndrome, retinopathy of prematurity, familial exudative vitreoretinopathy, congenital retinal folds, Coat’s disease, and neurofibromatosis. Conclusions We described the uncommon presentation of ACG in Chinese young patients. Although unusual, most of the etiologies could be identified. Therefore, more careful and comprehensive examinations are needed for early detection and timely treatment for young ACG patients.
