Abstract

Exposure to a variety of solvents may result in renal disease. Tubular renal disease with anuria occurring fairly promptly after exposure is most commonly seen. There is evidence that some cases of glomerular disease, such as extra-capillary glomerulonephritis and membranous nephropathy, may be causally related to chronic solvent exposure. Their detection may be impeded by the prolonged latent period between exposure and onset of disease, the non-specificity of the glomerular lesions and the non-availability of a history of exposure.
