Abstract
As in other European countries, acute renal failure (ARF) remains a challenge for any French physician involved in the treatment of patients in the Intensive Care Unit (Cameron 1986). Although the mortality has changed little over the past twenty years, there have been some modifications in aetiology, form and outcome of ARF. This review will centre upon my personal experience and that described in the more recent French literature.
