The kidneys filter the blood to excrete waste products and excess salt from the body as urine, while reabsorbing what the body needs and keeping it in the body. For this reason, when the function of the kidneys deteriorates, urine cannot be produced, and homeostasis of electrolytes and acid-bases cannot be maintained. As a result, waste products accumulate in the body, resulting in uremia and the need for dialysis induction or kidney transplant. This paper provides an overview of the neurological complications that appear in kidney disease and their treatment.
