Description
Summary:The aim of this study was to report a case of sudden death due to acute renal failure by oxalate calcium nephrosis. Among the main differential diagnoses, there are ethylene glycol intoxication, lily intoxication and primary congenital hyperoxaluria. Epidemiology and clinical signs suggest intoxication by ethylene glycol, a nephrotoxic substance present in several products. There are few reports of this condition in Brazil, and it should be considered in cases of renal failure and sudden death.
