Hi;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
Diabetes is a disease which itself causes nephropathy (a degenerative condition ) of kidneys leading to failure of kidneys but in your aunt case it could be acute renal shut down caused due to major surgery ;it is a common complication & cannot be avoided.Haemodialysis & other treatment going on is fine her blood Urea is 108 but the S.Creatinine is the main deciding factor you have not written the level of it.Presently it will be a wait & watch situation for you as well as the doctors .Once she stabilizes then may be she can recover but prediction of recovery before hand is not possible we have to take every day as it comes till she shows signs of recovery.Please let the treatment continue & hope for the best.
Wish her a speedy recovery.
Thanks
