Radical nephrectomy is a significant risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD). There are few reports on the renal outcome of acute kidney injury (AKI) after radical nephrectomy. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of AKI and whether post-operative AKI is associated with new-onset CKD after radical nephrectomy for renal cell cancer (RCC).
