Abstract
The aging kidney is associated with a number of structural and functional changes. As a result of these changes the aging kidney is more susceptible to nephrotoxic and ischemic injury. We will review the structural and functional changes that occur with aging and then review the salient features of acute renal failure in the elderly population.Entities:
