Objective: Characterize the profile of children and adolescents with chronic renal failure followed up at nephrology units in the town of Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil. Methods: This is a quantitative, retrospective and descriptive, research which investigated socio-demographic, clinical, and therapeutic variables in the medical records of 35 children and adolescents followed up at nephrology units by June 2010.

The most prevalent comorbidities were systemic arterial hypertension (51,4%) and diabetes ellitus (48,6%). The main associated clinical manifestations were systemic arterial hypertension (51,4%), uremia (48,6%), edema (42,9%), and anemia (31,4%); 97,1% of patients underwent hemodialysis. Most patients continued on hemodialysis (40%) up to 2 years of treatment (54,3%).
