The article presents mechanisms of chronic kidney disease development both due to the fetus hypoxia and acute kidney lesion. As a result of hypoxia, babies develop kidney fibrosis and progressing of the chronic kidney disease due to the activation of multiple profibrogenic factors. Thus, all babies with prenatal hypoxia and acute kidney lesion in the postnatal period are automatically included into a risk group for the chronic kidney disease and require dynamic observation of a nephrologist.
Key words: Children, acute kidney lesion, chronic kidney disease, hypoxia, nephropathy.
