Acute and chronic renal failure
Kidney injury and failure is generally a serious condition in clinical medicine, occurring in almost all fields, including urology. A relatively crucial step in adequate preventive and therapeutic management is early differentiation between acute and chronic renal failure. Each of them requires a different approach but also shares many common features. The present manuscript provides a brief overview of differential diagnostics between the two conditions and basic principles of treatment.
Keywords: acute kidney injury, differential diagnostics, chronic kidney disease.
