Pregnancy-related acute kidney injury (AKI) has declined in incidence in the last three decades, although it remains an important cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Pregnancy-related causes of AKI such as preeclampsia, acute fatty liver of pregnancy, HELLP syndrome, and the thrombotic microangiopathies (thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome) exhibit overlapping features and often present a diagnostic conundrum. Differentiating among these conditions may be difficult or impossible based on clinical criteria only. In difficult and rare cases, a renal biopsy may need to be considered for the exact diagnosis and facilitate appropriate treatment, but the risks and benefits will need to be carefully weighed. The use of eculizumab for the treatment of atypical HUS has demonstrated efficacy in early case reports. Non-pregnancy related causes such as volume depletion and pyelonephritis require early and aggressive resuscitative and antibiotic measures. We will discuss in this review the various etiologies of AKI in pregnancy, current diagnostic approaches, and the latest treatment strategies. Given the recent trends of increasing maternal age at the time of pregnancy, as well the availability of modern reproductive methods both of which may be associated with significant co-morbidities, the issues surrounding AKI in pregnancy may become more relevant in the coming years.
