Baliga KV et al. - The spectrum of acute renal failure in Falciparum malaria varies from mild urinary abnormalities to acute renal failure. Acute tubular necrosis has been reported in one percent patients, and acute cortical necrosis has rarely been reported. We present a case of acute cortical necrosis in a young patient with Falciparum malaria who had a prolonged oligo-anuric course followed by partial recovery of renal function.
