Acute and chronic kidney disease encompasses a complex set of diseases that can both lead to, and result from, cancer. In particular, kidney disease can arise from the use of chemotherapeutic agents. ⋯ As new therapies are introduced to treat cancer, new renal toxicities require proper diagnosis and management. We anticipate that multidisciplinary collaborations will lead to the development and implementation of guidelines for clinicians to improve the therapeutic management of patients with both cancer and renal impairment.
