Chronic renal failure (CRF) is the progressive loss of kidney function. The kidneys attempt to compensate for renal damage by hyperfiltration (excessive straining of the blood) within the remaining functional nephrons (filtering units that consist of a glomerulus and corresponding tubule). The cause for CRF sometimes can be determined by a detailed medical history, a comprehensive physical examination, and laboratory studies. CRF are common in patients who have multiple myeloma ( cancer that begins in atype of white blood cell called plasma cells ).
