The obstetric complications are commonest (50 – 70%) (Hassan 2009), non-obstetric account 20-30% cases and these circumstances incidence higher men than women (Duff & More, 1941). Majority patients become dialysis dependent occasional may recover partial kidney function dialysis-independent. usually bilateral condition, rarely being unilateral (Blau 1971). lesions caused by significant prolonged diminished arterial perfusion vascular spasm, micro-vascular injury, or intravascular coagulation. Renal extensive although local localized forms occur. Most present as suspicion condition arises following oliguria and/or anuria. biopsy gold standard diagnosis.
