Introduction: COVID - 19 is a pathology caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is not limited to the respiratory system but can also affect other organs, including the kidney; Initially they suggest that renal involvement may not be very common, however recent studies have shown that the incidence of acute renal failure in severe cases ranged from 2.9 to 50% due to different definitions and clinical situations; proteinuria and hematuria can occur even before acute renal failure Methods: A descriptive, observational, retrospective and cross-sectional study of physical and electronic medical records of patients hospitalized with COVID - 19 at the Adolfo Guevara Velasco National Hospital, ESSALUD Cusco in the months of April - 2020 to March 2021 that met the inclusion criteria, in order to describe the secondary renal complications and their characteristics. Results: 41.2% of hospitalized patients with COVID - 19 presented acute renal failure at some point during hospitalization. The most frequent age range was 60 to 79 (41.5%) with a mean of 60 years. 67.2% were male and 44.24% were overweight. Of these patients, 15.9% died. According to initial urinary flow, during and at the end of hospitalization, 17.5%, 27.7% and 13.5%, respectively, presented acute renal failure; 56.25% resolved at the beginning. 9.1% and 8% of patients presented AKI at the beginning and at the end of hospitalization according to creatinine value, respectively. 64% and 50% of patients with AKI presented grade I according to the AKIN scale at the beginning and at the end of hospitalization, respectively. Conclusions: A high percentage of acute renal failure was determined in patients with COVID - 19 and that the AKIN I stage is the highest percentage among patients with acute renal failure.
