Acute Kidney Injury by Near-drowning: From the Beach to the Hemodialysis Center - A Case Report

2024Open accessUniversité Ibn Zohr

Abstract

Acute kidney injury (AKI) secondary to near-drowning is rarely described and poorly understood. Much of the literature on near-drowning has concentrated on the respiratory, cerebral, cardiac, and hematologic complications. Near-drowning-induced AKI is a heterogenous clinical entity. We report a case of near-drowning, which developed inisolated AKI due to acute tubular necrosis requiring dialysis.
