Acute renal failure is seen with the acute abdominal compartment syndrome (AACS). The cause of acute renal failure in AACS is thought to be multifactorial, including increased renal venous pressure, renal parenchymal pressure (RPP), and decreased cardiac output. Previous studies have established the role of renal venous pressure as an important mediator of this renal derangement. In this study, we evaluate the role of renal parenchymal compression on renal function.
