title: [Acute tubular necrosis in acute alcoholic hepatitis with cardiac beriberi (author's transl)].
abstract: In one case of fulminant hepatic failure by acute alcoholic hepatitis, renal failure seemed to be related to active renal vasoconstriction by systemic endotoxemia due to impaired hepatic clearance of toxins, associated with or complicated by a located intravascular coagulation with acute tubular necrosis. The associated thiamin deficiency may have accentuated this renal vasoconstriction.
