[Acute renal failure in newborn. Case presentation].
Acute renal failure in newborn occurs in 6-8%. Using a systematic approach, physicians can determine the cause of acute renal failure in most patients. Renal cortical necrosis is an uncommon cause of acute renal failure, secondary to perinatal asphyxia or severe anemia. We report our first experience in peritoneal dialysis for a newborn with renal injury due to severe bleeding through the umbilical cord.
