Abstract
Tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) is a kidney disease which is characterized by the inflammation in the kidney's tubules and interstitium. It can be acute or chronic, and is often caused by immune-mediated reactions to medications, infections, or other underlying conditions. Symptoms may include decreased urine output, fatigue, and edema. Diagnosis typically involves blood tests, urine tests, and kidney biopsy. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include discontinuing medications, treating infections, or using immunosuppressive therapy. In some cases, TIN can progress to chronic kidney disease.
