Evolutionary reno-urinary complications at the post-COVID-19 stages in pediatric practice

Abstract

The infection with SARS CoV-2 is characterized by complexity and heterogeneity, with multiorgan involvement, including the renal system. Acute kidney injury is a severe complication frequently encountered in patients with COVID-19, being a marker of severity and prognosis. Numerous studies demonstrate that the increased incidence of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients is associated with a more severe evolution of the disease and a reserved prognosis.
