Renard D Gauthier T Venetz JP Buclin T Kuntzer T 2012 A 59-year-old kidney recipient was diagnosed with a late onset of severe chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy and almost fully recovered after stopping tacrolimus and one course of intravenous immunoglobulin treatment. Unique features of this patient are the unusually long time lapse between initiation of tacrolimus and the adverse effect (10 years), a strong causality link and several arguments pointing toward an inflammatory etiology. When facing new neurological signs and symptoms in graft recipients, it is important to bear in mind the possibility of a drug-induced adverse event. Discontinuation of the suspect drug and immunomodulation are useful treatment options. application/pdf https://sonar.ch/global/documents/277925 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1093/ckj/sfs067 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/pmid/25874089 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Clinical kidney journal. - 2012 adverse event chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy tacrolimus Late onset tacrolimus-induced life-threatening polyneuropathy in a kidney transplant recipient patient. http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
