The authors report a case of anuria which lasted 3 months in a patient with sub-acute streptoccocal endocarditis. The investigations led to the discovery, at the level of the kidneys, of arterial aneurysms, renal infarction and diffuse endo-capillary proliferative glomerulonephritis, with deposits of complement and immunoglobulin and finally, interstitial nephritis, perhaps of metastatic origin, which was probably the lesion responsible for the renal failure. Renal function progressively improved and hemodialysis was stopped at the 6th month after correction of the mitral and aortic valve disease.
