大麻呕吐综合征(CHS)是一种以慢性大麻使用者的周期性呕吐和腹痛为特征的疾病。它是由长期使用大麻引起的,经常被误诊或未被识别。CHS会导致脱水,电解质失衡,肾功能衰竭,加剧肾结石或肾结石的风险。肾结石是一种常见的泌尿系统疾病,其特征是在肾脏中形成固体结石,输尿管,或膀胱。CHS与肾结石之间的关联尚不清楚,需要进一步研究。然而,提示CHS可能由于脱水和电解质失衡而增加肾结石的风险。因此,医疗保健专业人员应该意识到CHS的潜在并发症,并监测患者的肾结石,尤其是慢性大麻使用者。我们报告了一个28岁的美国印度男性,有每日使用大麻的历史,出现复发性肾结石和急性绞痛。
Cannabis hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) is a condition characterized by cyclic vomiting and abdominal pain in chronic cannabis users. It is caused by long-term cannabis use and is often misdiagnosed or unrecognized. CHS can lead to dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and renal failure, exacerbating the risk of nephrolithiasis or kidney stones. Nephrolithiasis is a common urologic condition characterized by the formation of solid stones in the kidneys, ureters, or bladder. The association between CHS and nephrolithiasis is still unclear and requires further investigation. However, it is suggested that CHS may increase the risk of nephrolithiasis due to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Therefore, healthcare professionals should be aware of the potential complications of CHS and monitor patients for kidney stones, especially in chronic cannabis users. We report a
case of a 28-year-old American-Indian male with a history of daily marijuana use, presented with recurrent renal stones and acute colicky pain.
