Introduction: Kidney disease is a major public health problem. Kidney damage is common in hematological diseases. The objective of our study was to look for kidney damage in hematological diseases. Material and Methods: We did a retrospective study lasting 2 years from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020, in the hematology department of Donka National Hospital. We included all the files of patients followed for benign or malignant hematological disease, then we looked for an anomaly of renal function, an anomaly on the urinary dipstick.
Results: Of a total of 480 records reviewed, we found that 53 patients had kidney disease (11.04%). The average age was 49 years ± 13.78. there a male predominance 28 (52.83%) against 25 (47.17%) among women. The comorbidities encountered during the study were hypertension in 20 patients. The most frequent hematological pathology in the study was sickle cell disease in 19 patients (35.84%) followed by myeloma in 8 patients (15.09%). Renal damage encountered during these hematological diseases was associated with acute renal failure 16 (30.18%) and chronic renal failure 19 (35.84%), without renal failure 18 (34.34%).
Conclusion: Our study allowed us to understand the high frequency of renal involvement in hematological pathologies that affected relatively young subject. Kidney damage can be acute or chronic, hence the need for early management through screening.
