    Title translation A woman with polyneuropathy and white nails.
    Abstract A 69-year-old woman had a progressive demyelinating and axonal polyneuropathy and a monoclonal gammopathy. Physical examination showed hyperpigmentation, acrocyanosis, white nails and pitting oedema. Additional tests showed polycythemia, thrombocytosis, a high serum VEGF-level, clonal plasma cells on bone marrow biopsy and sclerotic lesions of a cervical rib and the cervical and thoracal spine. POEMS-syndrome was diagnosed.

    Title translation Impaired renal function: be aware of exogenous factors.
    Abstract Background: Renal function is currently estimated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula, which is partly based on the serum creatinine level. Patients with impaired renal function are referred to nephrologists in accordance with the Dutch national transmural agreement for 'Chronic renal impairment'.
    Case description: A 54-year-old woman without significant history was referred to analyse a coincidentally found decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The patient had no complaints and used no medication except creatine supplements. Additional diagnostic testing showed no abnormalities. After cessation of creatine supplementation, the calculated renal function normalized.
    Conclusion: Serum creatinine is a reflection of muscle mass. The use of creatine-containing dietary supplements, such as creatine ethyl ester, can influence serum creatinine levels and therefore the eGFR as calculated with the MDRD formula. The use of supplements deserves attention when taking the history.

    Abstract Background: Although corticosteroids (CS) are used primarily in idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (iRPF), tamoxifen (TMX) may be a suitable alternative. We compared outcome with CS or TMX monotherapy for first presentation in a large group of patients with iRPF disease.
    Methods: Of all patients with iRPF disease who were seen at our tertiary care referral centre from February 1999 to December 2011, 118 patients were eligible for this retrospective study. Treatment success was defined as the composite of (i) amelioration of symptoms, (ii) computed tomography (CT)-documented mass regression and, if applicable, (iii) definitive removal of ureteral stent or nephrostomy tube. Recurrence was defined as recurrence of signs and symptoms and/or CT-documented mass increase after initial treatment success with primary treatment.
    Results: Presenting signs and symptoms did not differ between patients treated with CS (n = 50) or TMX (n = 68). Time to amelioration of symptoms after treatment initiation was shorter in CS-treated patients [CS, 2.0 (0.8-3.8) weeks versus TMX, 4.0 (2.0-6.0) weeks; P < 0.01]. Short-term percentual decrease in acute-phase reactant levels (P < 0.001 for both erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein) and serum creatinine level (P < 0.01) following treatment initiation was greater in CS-treated patients compared with that in TMX-treated patients. Mass regression at first follow-up CT scan was observed more frequently in CS-treated patients (CS, 84.0% versus TMX, 68.3%; P = 0.05) with no difference in time interval from treatment initiation to first follow-up CT between groups [CS, 5 (2-7) months versus TMX, 4 (4-5) months; P = 0.34]. Definite treatment success was non-significantly higher in CS-treated patients (CS, 72.7% versus TMX, 58.3%; P = 0.15). In patients with initial treatment success with primary treatment, recurrence rate was lower in TMX-treated patients (CS, 62.5% versus TMX, 21.4%; P < 0.01).
    Conclusions: CS are superior to TMX in treating iRPF disease. However, in patients with initial treatment success with primary treatment, recurrence rate was lower in TMX-treated patients.

    Abstract Background: Enteric hyperoxaluria due to malabsorption may cause chronic oxalate nephropathy and lead to end-stage renal disease. Kidney transplantation is challenging given the risk of recurrent calcium-oxalate deposition and nephrolithiasis.
    Methods: We established a protocol to reduce plasma oxalic acid levels peritransplantation based on reduced intake and increased removal of oxalate. The outcomes of 10 kidney transplantation patients using this protocol are reported.
    Results: Five patients received a living donor kidney and had immediate graft function. Five received a deceased donor kidney and had immediate (n = 1) or delayed graft function (n = 4). In patients with delayed graft function, the protocol was prolonged after transplantation. In 3 patients, our protocol was reinstituted because of late complications affecting graft function. One patient with high-output stoma and relatively low oxalate levels had lost her first kidney transplant because of recurrent oxalate depositions but now receives intravenous fluid at home on a routine basis 3 times per week to prevent dehydration. Patients are currently between 3 and 32 months after transplantation and all have a stable estimated glomerular filtration rate (mean, 51 ± 21 mL/min per 1.73 m
    Conclusions: This is the first systematic description of kidney transplantation in a cohort of patients with enteric hyperoxaluria. Common complications after kidney transplantation impact long-term transplant function in these patients. With our protocol, kidney transplantation outcomes were favorable in this population with unfavorable transplantation prospects and even previous unsuccessful transplants.

    Title translation Melanomas more serious in the elderly.
    Abstract Two patients, a 96-year-old woman and a 94-year-old man, were diagnosed with metastatic cutaneous melanoma. The first patient had undergone radical excision of the primary tumour 18 months before. The second patient presented with neurological symptoms caused by a metastatic melanoma; the primary tumour had recently been resected. Both patients died within three weeks of the diagnosis. Cutaneous melanomas have a high metastatic rate. Treatment options are limited for metastatic disease. The incidence of melanoma increases with age. Old age is an independent risk factor, which is also associated with a poor prognosis. Older patients more often present with more serious histological characteristics and more aggressive types of melanoma. The Breslow thickness is also higher in patients aged 65 or over. Nodular melanoma, lentigo maligna or acral lentiginous melanoma are observed more frequently in this group of patients. Moreover, elderly people more frequently present with liver or cerebral metastases. Early diagnosis improves the prognosis, also in the elderly.
