Synonym(s): Renal ischaemia

Introduction

  • Cause: multiple potential events that can lead to renal ischemia.
  • Signs: shock, hyperthermia/hypothermia.
  • Diagnosis: depends on underlying cause.
  • Treatment: treat underlying cause.
  • Prognosis: acute renal failure if renal ischemia not corrected quickly.
  • See also renal failure Kidney: acute kidney injury (AKI).

Pathogenesis

Etiology

Pathophysiology

  • Sudden impairment of renal blood supply → renal ischemia  →  decreased intracellular ATP (due to mitochondrial dysfunction)  →  decreased function of Na-K and Na-Ca ATP-ase pumps  →  increased intracellular Na and Ca  →  increased intracellular osmotic pressure  →  swelling of tubular cells and sludging and aggregation in renal blood vessels  →  further decrease in renal blood flow. 
  • Renal ischemia  →  increase in oxygen free radical formation  →  further damage cell membranes (eg through lipid peroxidation). 
  • Self-perpetuating secondary injuries during reperfusion injury. 
  • Severe damage to the renal cells  →  acute renal failure and/or chronic changes with fibrosis increasing risk for chronic renal failure.

Timecourse

  • Acute but can progress to chronic kidney disease.
