Changes in kidney function in extremely preterm infants (EPT) with conservatively managed hemodynamically significant (HS) patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) are not known well. We aimed to present the postnatal course in serum creatinine levels (sCr), prevalence of acute kidney injury (AKI), then relevance between AKI and adverse outcomes in EPT with conservatively managed HS PDA. By review of medical records, we analyzed the postnatal course of sCr and prevalence of stage 3 AKI defined by the modified Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO) in EPT at gestational age of 23 to 26 weeks with conservatively treated HS PDA. We investigated if the presence and/or prolonged duration of stage 3 AKI elevated the risk of adverse outcomes. The results showed that, neither factor was associated with adverse outcomes. While the average PDA closure date was at postnatal day (P) 41 and 53, sCr peaked at P 10 and 14 and the cumulative prevalence of stage 3 AKI was 57% and 72% in the EPT of 25-26 and 23-24 weeks' gestation, respectively. The high prevalence of stage 3 AKI without adverse outcomes in EPT with conservatively managed HS PDA suggests that it might reflect renal immaturity rather than pathologic conditions.
