Abstract

Like bacterial diseases viral diseases may also be accompanied by functional renal disorders or abnormalities of the urinary sediment. Thus, to find a hematuria or an isolated proteinuria in the context of influenza or hepatitis is not rare at all. In certain cases viral affections may even be accompanied by a nephrotic syndrome. This article aims at the discussion of multiple renal disorders appearing in the context of hepatitis B and C and AIDS.
