Snakebite Induced Thrombotic Microangiopathy Leading to Renal Cortical Necrosis

الملخص EN

Renal complications from snakebite result in high mortality and morbidity.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 5–30% of cases.

Renal manifestation could include acute tubular necrosis, cortical necrosis, interstitial nephritis, glomerulonephritis, and vasculitis.

We present a case of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) resulting in renal cortical necrosis.

Renal biopsy showed fibrin thrombi in glomeruli and arterioles with cortical necrosis.

Our patient progressed to end-stage renal disease.
