Περιγραφή: Acute bilateral renal cortical necrosis (RCN) is a rare but potentially lethal form of renal injury that poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for clinicians. The causes of renal cortical necrosis are multi-factorial. Renal cortical necrosis shows a higher incidence in men than women in non-obstetric cases, and its clinical presentation is heterogeneous, ranging from asymptomatic to severe renal failure. In this case report, we describe the clinical course of a patient who presented with acute renal failure following a venomous snake bite and was subsequently diagnosed with renal cortical necrosis. Despite aggressive management, the patient ultimately succumbed to death on the 24th day of admission. The present case highlights the importance of early diagnosis, prompt initiation of appropriate management, and effective prevention of complications in patients with renal cortical necrosis to improve patient outcomes and reduce morbidity and mortality. A timely and accurate diagnosis of renal cortical necrosis is critical for initiating appropriate interventions, and management should aim to address the underlying cause and prevent potential complications.

  Data: Acute bilateral renal cortical necrosis (RCN) is a rare but potentially lethal form of renal injury that poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for clinicians. The causes of renal cortical necrosis are multi-factorial. Renal cortical necrosis shows a higher incidence in men than women in non-obstetric cases, and its clinical presentation is heterogeneous, ranging from asymptomatic to severe renal failure. In this case report, we describe the clinical course of a patient who presented with acute renal failure following a venomous snake bite and was subsequently diagnosed with renal cortical necrosis. Despite aggressive management, the patient ultimately succumbed to death on the 24th day of admission. The present case highlights the importance of early diagnosis, prompt initiation of appropriate management, and effective prevention of complications in patients with renal cortical necrosis to improve patient outcomes and reduce morbidity and mortality. A timely and accurate diagnosis of renal cortical necrosis is critical for initiating appropriate interventions, and management should aim to address the underlying cause and prevent potential complications.
