Acute Tubular Injury in a Patient on a Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 Inhibitor
A 72-year-old man with coronary artery disease, statin intolerance, and chronic kidney disease stage IIIa was initiated on alirocumab, a proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor, and developed acute kidney injury. A kidney biopsy was performed and suggested acute tubular injury. The s...
