There is a broad clinical spectrum of renal involvement in snakebite. Besides the local and systemic symptoms, clinical renal manifestations vary from mild proteinuria, haematuria, pigmenturia to acute renal failure. Bites by haemotoxic snakes and myotoxic snakes are the common causes of renal involvement especially acute renal failure. Therefore, renal failure is often associated with haemorrhagic diathesis, intravascular haemolysis and rhabdomyolysis. Renal pathological changes include mesangiolysis, glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, tubular necrosis, interstitial nephritis and cortical necrosis. Tubular necrosis is an important pathological counterpart of acute renal failure. Haemodynamic alterations induced by cytokines and vasoactive mediators leading to renal ischaemia are important in the pathogenesis of acute renal failure. Haemolysis, intravascular coagulation and rhabdomyolysis are important contributing factors. Direct nephrotoxicity can be induced by the venom through metalloproteases and phosphilipase A(2.) Immunologic mechanism plays a minor role in the pathogenesis of the renal lesion.
