Résumé

Novel messenger RNA (mRNA)-based vaccines play an important role in current vaccination campaigns against SARS-CoV-2. They are highly efficacious and generally well tolerated. Vaccination in patients with immune-mediated kidney diseases is recommended. A number of cases with We collected 10 cases of macrohaematuria following mRNA-based severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination at our tertiary care institution and referring centres. Additionally, we pooled all 25 published cases from the literature with ours to analyse their clinical characteristics. Most macrohaematuria episodes (72.2%) began within 2 days after vaccination, the majority after the second dose. In some individuals, repeated episodes occurred after subsequent doses of the same vaccine. A total of 65.7% of patients never had macrohaematuria before. A total of 45.7% were known to suffer from immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN); the rest had no prior renal diagnosis. IgAN was the most frequent new diagnosis, but anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis and anti-glomerular basement membrane disease were also identified. Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurred in 28.6% of patients, with an increase in serum creatinine not meeting Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes AKI criteria in 28.6%. Treatment ranged from conservative management, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, steroids and cyclophosphamide to plasmapheresis. While renal outcomes were mainly favourable in isolated IgAN, they were poor in patients with additional or isolated small vessel vasculitis. Awareness of gross haematuria after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is important. Close follow-up and additional work up, particularly in individuals without known underlying kidney disease or worsening renal function, is essential. For patients with vaccine-associated macrohaematuria, an alternative vaccine class might be considered for subsequent vaccinations.

Results UNASSIGNED
Most macrohaematuria episodes (72.2%) began within 2 days after vaccination, the majority after the second dose. In some individuals, repeated episodes occurred after subsequent doses of the same vaccine. A total of 65.7% of patients never had macrohaematuria before. A total of 45.7% were known to suffer from immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN); the rest had no prior renal diagnosis. IgAN was the most frequent new diagnosis, but anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis and anti-glomerular basement membrane disease were also identified. Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurred in 28.6% of patients, with an increase in serum creatinine not meeting Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes AKI criteria in 28.6%. Treatment ranged from conservative management, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, steroids and cyclophosphamide to plasmapheresis. While renal outcomes were mainly favourable in isolated IgAN, they were poor in patients with additional or isolated small vessel vasculitis.
Conclusion UNASSIGNED
Awareness of gross haematuria after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is important. Close follow-up and additional work up, particularly in individuals without known underlying kidney disease or worsening renal function, is essential. For patients with vaccine-associated macrohaematuria, an alternative vaccine class might be considered for subsequent vaccinations.
