Patients with renal failure tend to have bleeding, manifested as subcutaneous bleeding points, ecchymosis, gingival bleeding, epistaxis, severe cases can occur gastrointestinal bleeding and death. In addition, there may be abnormal leukocytes. Due to the effect of "urotoxin", the production and function of leukocytes are impaired.
