Abstract

Numerous studies have found that treatment with vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (warfarin) is associated with renal function impairment not only in patients with chronic kidney diseases but also in patients without renal diseases. Nephropathies associated with warfarin administration are increasingly recognized as a new subcategory of acute renal damage, called warfarin-associated nephropathy, with definitive microscopic state in renal biopsy. Recent evidence suggests that anticoagulant-related nephropathy may also develop on the back of treatment with direct oral anticoagulants. In the article clinical case of rivaroxaban- related nephropathy in patient with normal renal function and review of literature which is devoted to this problem are represented.
