Urinary tract Acute renal failure, usually oliguric and transient, occurs rarely after treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin the incidence is less than 1%, but it is more frequent in patients with other susceptibility factors for renal failure [39 , 40 ,43, 57 ]. This reversible reaction occurs mostly (90%) with sucrose-containing products, leading to osmotic injury and tubular damage [30, 41. ... 

In this case, there were multiple susceptibility factors the patient s age, the sucrose-containing immunoglobulin product, the first administration, and the high infusion rate. Another case of acute renal failure after administration of intravenous immunoglobulin to a 87-year-old woman has been described [58" ]. Proteinuria can also occur [40 ]. 

Deep venous thrombosis occurred in a bed-bound patient, and acute renal failure in a patient with diabetic nephropathy after intravenous immunoglobulin [40 ].
