We present a clinical case of a 54-year-old woman that was admitted in our hospital with the diagnosis of fever of unknown origin. All the laboratory tests and imaging techniques did not manage to establish the fever's aetiology until a (67)Ga-citrate scan was performed and kidney uptake was observed, which lead to the clinical suspicion of drug-induced interstitial nephritis. The renal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. This finding allowed corticoid therapy and cure.
