摘要
Some reports suggest that autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation holds potential for treatment of renal diseases such as lupus nephritis, but the safety of delivering various stem cell types (hematopoietic, mesenchymal, and endothelial precursors) is not well established. Here, we report a case of lupus nephritis treated by direct renal injection of autologous stem cells recovered from peripheral blood. The patient developed masses at the sites of injection and hematuria. We suspected transitional cell carcinoma but nephrectomy revealed that the masses were angiomyeloproliferative lesions. We believe that this previously undescribed pathologic entity is stem cell–derived or –induced. The biologic potential, including the neoplastic potential, of this lesion is unknown. This case illustrates that the development of angiomyeloproliferative lesions is a possible complication of stem cell therapy.

干细胞治疗对身体的损害

干细胞疗法的疗效和安全性至今未获验证，FDA也没有在美国批准试验此种疗法，但在中国、墨西哥和哥斯达黎加等地，干细胞疗法却相当流行，没有受到管制，因此吸引了无数患者前往治疗，出现了所谓的“干细胞旅游业”。上周哥斯达黎加政府取缔了一家干细胞治疗诊所。本周有报道称，一位患者在泰国一家诊所接受干细胞治疗后死亡。

一位患有“狼疮性肾炎”的女性患者，在曼谷一家私人诊所接受了干细胞治疗。医生从她自身的骨髓中提取出干细胞，直接注入到患者的肾脏。根据发表在《美国肾脏病学会》杂志上的病例分析报告，患者在接受治疗后就开始出现肾衰竭，一年后她的一个肾脏已经坏死，两年后她因此而死亡。尸检发现干细胞治疗未对其肾脏产生任何好处，反而在注射部位观察到了病变。
