Onconephrology is a new subspecialty of nephrology that recognizes the important intersections of kidney disease with cancer. This intersection takes many forms and includes drug‐induced nephrotoxicity, electrolyte disorders, paraneoplastic glomerulonephritis, and the interactions of chronic kidney disease with cancer. Data clearly demonstrate that, when patients with cancer develop acute or chronic kidney disease, outcomes are inferior, and the promise of curative therapeutic regimens is lessened. This highlights the imperative for collaborative care between oncologists and nephrologists in recognizing and treating kidney disease in patients with cancer. In response to this need, specific training programs in onconephrology as well as dedicated onconephrology clinics have appeared. This comprehensive review covers many of the critical topics in onconephrology, with a focus on acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, drug‐induced nephrotoxicity, kidney disease in stem cell transplantation, and electrolyte disorders in patients with cancer.

肾病学：肾脏和癌症之间的交叉点

肾脏病学是肾脏病学的一个新亚专业，它认识到肾脏疾病与癌症之间的重要交叉点。这种交叉有多种形式，包括药物引起的肾毒性、电解质紊乱、副肿瘤性肾小球肾炎以及慢性肾病与癌症的相互作用。数据清楚地表明，当癌症患者发展为急性或慢性肾病时，预后较差，治愈性治疗方案的前景也会减弱。这凸显了肿瘤学家和肾病学家在识别和治疗癌症患者的肾脏疾病方面进行协作护理的必要性。为了满足这一需求，出现了肿瘤肾病学的特定培训计划以及专门的肿瘤肾病学诊所。
