Abstract
Pregnancy is identified as one of the risk factors for increased severity of illness in severe acute respiratory syndrome novel coronavirus 2019 infection. The severity of illness may range from mild infection to severe multi-organ failure. Acute kidney injury (AKI) may occur in pregnant patients with coronavirus disease (COVID) either due to obstetric cause or due to severe COVID illness. We report six cases of COVID-pregnancy with AKI and their outcomes.
