Abstract

Yellow fever is an acute arbovirosis characterized by wide clinical spectrum, from asymptomatic to severe forms. The infection is transmitted by mosquitoes of the genus Aedes to humans. The disease usually occurs in two stages, and the yellow fever virus is viscerotropic, with the liver and kidney often affected in severe forms of disease. The renal involvement is multifactorial, including an effect of inflammation and viral replication.
