Successful pregnancy outcome in a patient with acute renal failure superimposed on chronic renal failure treated with repeated hemodialysis

A case is presented of successful pregnancy in a patient with acute renal failure superimposed on chronic controlled renal failure. The cause which led to development of acute renal failure were severe water-electrolyte equilibrium disturbances due to diarrhoea. Appropriately conducted conservative treatment in the period of oliguria, and early institution of treatment with repeated haemodialysis (taking into account the minimal fluctuations of body fluids, and adequate heparinization) were decisive for successful outcome of pregnancy in this patient.
