[An unusual case of acute kidney insufficiency].

Acute aortic dissection (AAD) is a life-threatening condition with high morbidity and mortality, that involves renal arteries in at least 5-10% so leading to renal ischemia and insufficiency. AAD presenting with anuria and the necessity of renal replacement therapy occurs rarely. Here we describe a case of a hypertensive and obese patient presenting with anuria and acute kidney injury, who underwent to hemodialysis and later was diagnosed with aortic dissection.
