| Abstract | Introduction: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) presents primarily as an acute respiratory disorder with interstitial and vesicular pneumonia but affects various organs, including the kidneys, heart, gastrointestinal tract, blood, and gastric nervous system. This study aimed to report a case of COVID-19 with acute kidney injury (AKI). Case Presentation: A 37-year-old female patient with two positive COVID PCR and Cr = 0.8 but with no record of AKI was admitted to Razi Hospital in Ahvaz in April 2020 for ten days. After completion of the informed consent, her blood samples were obtained, and a renal biopsy and other tests were performed on her. Conclusions: Announced COVID-19 cases reported in AKI. In sum, patients with a high prevalence of comorbidities, such as AKI, suffered from severe COVID-19. Therefore, it was recommended that the risk of acute kidney damage, in addition to the respiratory failure risk, should be taken into consideration in patients with COVID-19. Furthermore, COVID-19 may have presented symptoms of AKI in patients with no history. | en |
