A CASE OF LEPTOSPIROSIS WITHOUT RENAL INVOLVEMENT

Dr Amandeep Singh Kaloti

Abstract :

 

Leptospirosis is caused by spirochaete bacteria belonging to the genus Leptospira. 21 species of Leptospira have been identified. 13 species cause disease or have been detected in human cases. Signs and symptoms can range from none to mild such as headaches, muscle pains, and fevers; to severe with bleeding from the lungs or meningitis.  If the infection causes the person to turn yellow, have kidney failure. Severe manifestations include extreme fatigue, heå loss, respiratory distress, and azotemia. Here I report a case of leptospirosis which did not have any renal involvement and responded to the treatment.
