Abstract
Chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) is an emerging form of CKD that predominantly affects working-age adults belonging to agricultural communities living in discrete geographic areas. Disease hotspots have been identified in several countries, including El Salvador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Mexico, India, Egypt, and Sri Lanka.1 Despite its widespread distribution, the main clinicopathological features of the disease are similar among the different communities.2
