Abstract Background Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the common complications of cardiac surgery. Preoperative angiography helps assess heart disease but may increase the risk of AKI. Although more and more patients with preoperative renal dysfunction can undergo cardiac surgery with the advances in surgical techniques, there is little research on the effect of angiography on postoperative AKI in these patients. This study investigates whether angiography increases the risk of AKI after cardiac surgery in patients with preoperative renal dysfunction (15 ≤ eGFR
