Abstract

Renal infarction is a rare under-reported condition and is rarely diagnosed at presentation. As it can mimic other conditions, such as nephrolithiasis and pyelonephritis, the diagnosis is often delayed or missed. Unfortunately, this leads to late treatment initiation and therefore may result in irreversible kidney damage. The most common causes are thromboembolism and atheromatous disease. We present three case reports of renal infarction with similar clinical presentation but with distinctive etiologies and evolution.
