Tropical Diseases: A Public Health problem with impact on Nephrology -- Renal function evaluation in tropical diseases -- Poisoning by snakes and renal complications -- Hemorrhagic accidents by Lonomia obliqua -- Acute kidney injury by exogenous intoxications -- Renal involvement in arbovirosis -- Renal involvement in Chagas' disease (American Trypanosomiasis) -- Tropical diseases in renal transplantation -- Kidney diseases associated to Schistosomiasis mansoni -- Acute kidney injury in yellow fever -- Nephropathy in Lymphatic filariasis -- Epidemic and post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis -- Leprosy nephropathy -- Hantavirosis and the renal syndrome -- Viral hepatites and kidney disease -- Kidney diseases associated to HIV -- Staphylococcal infections and kidney disease -- Renal involvement in American cutaneous leishmaniasis -- Visceral leishmaniasis (Kala-azar) nephropathy -- Leptospirosis and the Weil's syndrome -- Malaria and renal complications -- Mesoamerican Nephropathy -- Acute kidney injury in Tetanus -- Renal Tuberculosis.

This unique book provides an introduction to the fascinating field of tropical nephrology, covering nephrology, infectious diseases and tropical medicine. These topics are connected since numerous infectious and parasitic diseases affect the kidneys and are endemic in the tropical areas of the globe. Considered neglected tropical diseases by the World Health Organization, they are largely linked to poverty and lack policies to prevent, treat and decrease their prevalence and incidence. The tropics currently encompass nearly 150 countries and account for 40% of the world's population, and it is predicted that by 2050 this figure will rise to 55%. Most of the countries in the tropical regions have been classified by the World Bank as low-middle income countries and have limited access to services, including health care. As such, this highly topical book is of interest to a large number of healthcare professionals and researchers who are in contact with tropical diseases, especially those investigating their complications, such as kidney injury. Divided into 23 chapters, it describes the most prevalent tropical diseases and conditions that affect the kidneys. It also presents the most recent epidemiological data, clinical manifestations, details of kidney involvement, including the pathophysiology of kidney injury, and the current treatment for each disease.
