%X Objective: To know the therapeutic itinerary of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) under dialytic treatment. Method: This is a descriptive and exploratory study, with qualitative nature, performed in 40 patients with chronic renal failure who underwent dialysis in a clinic located in the municipality of NatalRN. The data collection was held through semi-structured interviews. Results: The study showed that the therapeutic itinerary of the interviewed patients was marked by the discovery of the renal disease, search for health care, dialytic treatment and future prospects. Conclusion: it was notorious that the majority of the interviewed were belatedly referred to the specialist, when the renal function is already largely affected, which often requires a dialytic treatment or even the accomplishment of urgent admissions. The transplantation was characterized as hope for a better quality of life and release from the dialytic therapy.
