Abstract
We read with great interest the two case reports by McIntire et al 1 on "Acute Flank Pain and Reversible Renal Dysfunction Associated with Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Use." We also treated a 14-year-old healthy girl who had acute severe bilateral flank pain and nonoliguric acute renal failure. The patient's flank pain and vomiting started 4 days before admission. A diagnosis of possible urinary tract infection was made and amoxicillin therapy was instituted. Her past medical history was unremarkable except for an uncomplicated urinary tract infection 6 years earlier.
