Abstract: Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV2) has become a pandemic in the world.Although COVID19 is most well known for causing substantial respiratory pathology,it can also result in several extrapulmonary manifestations.The kidney is widely concerned as an important regulator of homeostasis in human body.Direct viral toxicity,dysregulation of  immune response,thromboinflammation and other factors may be related to kidney injury.However,studies on COVID19 leading to kidney injury are still limited,and the specific relationship between SARSCoV2 and kidney injury is still unclear.In addition,during the epidemic,risk of infection in kidney dialysis patients and renal transplant recipients increases,and more reasonable management and prevention are needed.In order to further understand the relationship of COVID19 and kidney injury,and the problems that need to be paid attention to and solved in the kidney field,this article reviews the research progress of kidney injury in COVID-19.
