Abstract
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy is a heterogeneous disease with variable clinical presentations ranging from asymptomatic hematuria to advanced renal failure. A young male diagnosed with IgA vasculitis (skin, joints, and gastrointestinal) one month ago and placed on oral steroids presented with acute diarrhea, hemolytic anemia, renal failure (non-dialysis requiring), altered sensorium, and thrombocytopenia. The stool was found to be positive for Shiga toxin. He improved with methylprednisolone pulse alone, and renal biopsy showed acute tubular injury.
