2003年3月,香港爆发严重急性呼吸系统综合症(SARS)。截至2003年7月10日,世界卫生组织已报告香港有1755宗SARS个案,全球有8437宗[1]。最近几个月文献中报告了暴发和病例聚集[2-5]。香港第一个已知的SARS病例是广东省一家医院的医生,他于2003年2月21日前往香港[3]。一种新型冠状病毒已被确定为SARS的可能病因[6,7]。SARS可以发生在健康人和慢性病患者中,包括终末期肾衰竭。严重急性呼吸道综合征对肾透析患者的临床资料缺乏。我们在这里描述两个终末期肾功能衰竭患者,都接受长期血液透析,谁获得了疾病后,与SARS患者接触,并有不同的结果。
In March 2003, an outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) occurred in Hong Kong. As of July 10, 2003, the World Health Organization has reported 1755 cases of SARS in Hong Kong and 8437 cases worldwide [1]. Outbreaks and case clusters have been reported in the literature in recent months [2–5]. The first known case of SARS in Hong Kong was a physician working in a hospital in Guangdong Province who travelled to Hong Kong on February 21, 2003 [3]. A novel coronavirus has been identified as a possible cause of SARS [6, 7]. SARS can occur in both healthy individuals and those with chronic illness including endstage renal failure. Clinical information of SARS on renal dialysis patients is lacking. We describe here two end-stage renal failure patients, both receiving chronic haemodialysis, who acquired the disease after contact with SARS patients and had different outcomes.
