Core Tip Different patterns of kidney damage can occur in patients treated with different interferon types, even after years of well-tolerated therapy. Interferon can cause renal dysfunction which ranges from subclinical to severe dysfunction and, regardless the mechanism of renal failure, the usual pathological finding includes either podocytopathies, interstitial nephritis, systemic lupus erythematosus-like disease or thrombotic microangiopathy. We describe four cases of interferon-related nephropathies and for each case we highlight clinical features, laboratory work-up, histological findings, treatment and follow-up. Moreover, we report for the first time a case of drug-induced systemic lupus erythematosus with renal involvement after the use of interferon-β.
