Abstract :
Whether working in intensive care unit or not as nephrologists
we are all facing complicated cases with different sign and
symptoms. Among them is a category of patients presenting with
concomitant respiratory and kidney failure called pulmonary renal
syndrome, which needs mutual connection between nephrologist
and pulmonologist closely for the best decision-making. Although
this is not a common entity, still associated with high rate of
morbidity and mortality involving diffuse alveolar hemorrhage
and glomerulonephritis. Understanding the updates in the field
of management would benefit both the patients and caregivers
providing clear answers to present obstacles.
