Abstract
Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) is a severe type of cutaneous adverse event involving systemic organ failures. In some cases of DIHS, acute renal failure takes place, and it becomes necessary to perform hemodialysis. However, the clinical outcome of renal failure in the course of treatment of DIHS remains unclear. Herein, we report a case of DIHS complicated with acute renal failure, which requires hemodialysis. Furthermore, we also review the DIHS cases accompanied by acute renal failure with hemodialysis in the English case report literature.
