title: [Acute interstitial secondary to tricuspid endocarditis caused by Staphylococcus aureus].
abstract: The kidney diseases in patients with bacterial endocarditis and intravenous drug addicts (IVDA) tend to be of glomerular origin. Interstitial nephritis has been related to drug toxicity and only occasionally has it been described in other associations. We describe a 27-year-old patient IVDA with tricuspid endocarditis caused by S. Aureus whose first manifestations was acute renal failure. The renal biopsy showed an interstitial nephritis. It was treated with antibiotic and hemodialysis, obtaining the cure and normal levels of plasmatic creatinine.
