Abstract
Kidney damage is common in patients with COVID-19, which is associated with a poor prognosis. The causes and mechanisms of nephropathies, structural disorders, the course of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease in the acute phase of the disease, and renal disorders in the post-COVID period are considered. The features of the treatment of a new coronavirus infection in kidney diseases and the treatment of nephropathies in COVID-19 are presented. Attention is drawn to the constant monitoring of the nephrological safety of all prescribed drugs. Early rehabilitation can prevent kidney damage in the post-COVID period. This review highlights only part of the questions that the new coronavirus infection poses to the medical community. More research is needed to answer the many unresolved problems of kidney damage in COVID-19.
