Syndrome of tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis.
We report a case of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis syndrome (TINU syndrome) in an elderly Indian woman. TINU is one of the rare causes of acute tubulo interstitial nephritis and is likely to be missed as there is often temporal gap between the appearance of the renal and ocular manifestations.
