During the month of December 2019 in Wuhan, China, a number of patients with acute respiratory disease of unknown origin with unfavorable evolution were detected, identifying the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus as the causal agent, better known for causing acute respiratory diseases, with interstitial and alveolar pneumonia, affecting multiple organs and systems (cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract, hematological system, nervous system and kidneys). Intervention with renal replacement therapies in grade III acute kidney injury, or in grade IV or V chronic kidney disease is frequent in these patients as part of the treatment established in the protocols. The evolution of a male patient with antecedents of type 2 diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, heart failure and chronic kidney disease was presented, aspects that triggered a cardiorenal syndrome V, which worsened with exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus; he was treated with conventional hemodialysis.
