title: Acute tubular necrosis induced by high level of cyclosporine A in a lung transplant.
abstract: We report a case of acute accidental cyclosporine A intoxication in a lung transplant patient. The intoxication led to renal failure due to acute tubular necrosis, which was partially reversible. A review of the literature on the renal consequences of cyclosporine A intoxication is given.
