Gross specimen of a human kidney affected by a diffuse cortical ischaemia, showing a marked pallor of the cortex, contrasting to the darker areas of surviving medullary tissue. Impaired blood flow to the kidney can occur due to generalized hypoperfusion in case of hypovolemia or decreased cardiac output in acute cardiac decompensation, leading to acute renal failure. The actual size can be determined with the rule below. | |
