Emergency surgery in patients with chronic renal failure is associated with higher morbidity and mortality and is not deferrable; in contrast, programmed surgery may be delayed until the renal function is optimized in the presence of acute injury and its resolution may be even accelerated if treated concomitantly with the triggering event.
La cirugía urgente en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica se asocia con mayor morbimortalidad, y no es diferible; en cambio, la cirugía programada se puede retrasar hasta optimizar la función renal al cursar con lesión aguda e inclusive se puede acelerar su resolución si se trata concomitantemente el evento precipitante.
