what causes htn edem and chf in chronic renal disease
na and h20 retention
A patient with severe diabetes and renal failure presents with
complaints of proximal muscle weakness and bone pain in the arms
and legs.
Bun is 60 with creatinineof 6 mg/dL. K is 5.5 mg/dL. Phosphorus is 5.9
meq/l (n = 2.4-4.1). Calcium is 7.2 mg/dL(n= 8-11).
What is causing renal osteodystrophyand bone pain in this patient?
PTH
What is the mechanism of the bone disease in CRF?
(increased P, decreased Ca and VitD, increased PTH, acidosis)
Renal disease=
decrease GFR = increase phosphate= decrease calcium*(#1)
*Calcium is decreased due to
increased P and decreased vitD.
Renal disease = decrease 1-alpha hydroxylaseactivity =
decrease vitamin D production(#2
Both hypo and hyper magnesemiaresult in
decreased PTH
production and secretion and thus hypocalcemia
Continuouslyelevated PTH drives
the osteoblastto produce RANKL
and thus more osteoclastactivity with bone resorption, ie. osteitis
fibrosacystica! In the mean time, low vitamin D levels produce
osteomalacia!
At the same time, the acidosis(H+) of renal
disease leads to bone resorptiondue to
buffering by carbonate and phosphates.
- Osteoclast activity also increased by hyponatremia

A 16 y/o male, who has a ventriculoperitonealshunt, presents with a two week history of febrile episodes and pedal edema. Three days ago he noticed the onset of blood in his urine. Urinalysis confirms dysmorphicred blood cells, red cell casts and mild proteinuria. Serum complement level is low. Electron microscopy shows subepithelialdeposits (“humps”) of IgGand C3. This is most likely which type of glomerulonephritis?
•E. Immune complex
This is post infectious GN.

Berger’s disease –IgAnephropathy
Deposits of aberrant IgA1 which exhibits galactosedeficiency in the O-linked glycansin the
hinge region of the heavy chain resulting in antibody formation and immune complexes.
Complexes with galactose-deficient IgA1 induce
cultured human mesangialcells to proliferate,
secrete extracellular matrix components, and release
humoralfactors such as TNFα, IL-6, and TGFβ.
This patient’s level of proteinuriaindicates that he will most
likely go on to develop HTN and chronic renal failure. He is
certainly a candidate for ACE inhibitors, steroids and possibly
even cyclophosphamide and azathioprine.
If the above patient presented with additional complaints of
arthralgias, nausea, colic, melena, and the following palpable rash,
it would be compatible with:
Henoch-Schöleinpurpura
Henoch-Schöleinpurpura
IGA skin vasculitis
IgA nephropathy with glycosylated IgA*

hepatic cirrhosis, HIV, CMV and Celiac
disease, as well as part of HSP
IGA vasculitis
inflammation of glomerular capillaries

This patient with palpable purpurahas fever, weight loss, and hematuria. History is negative for asthma or eosinophilia. RBC casts are found on UA. Blood test show P-ANCA to be present. Renal biopsy shows rapidly progressive GN. This patient has:
microscopic polyangitis.
Pauci-immune Glomerulonephritis: The ANCAs
This is an ANCA associated or Pauci-immune GMN (ANCAs lead to neutrophilicactivation* which along with a cell mediated immune response results in vessel damage/vasculitis.

PR3
ChurgStrauss is actually now classified as
an eosinophilic(IL 5) disease.
Priming causes PR3 and MPO to be expressed on neutrophilmembrane
where binding with antibodies is facilitated, thus resulting in the production of reactive oxygen species and release of proteolyticenzymes.
Anti-GlomerularBasement Membrane Disease
The principal target for the anti-GBM antibodies (which are
typically IgG1 and 3) is the NC1 domain of the alpha-3
chain of type IV collagen(alpha-3(IV) chain), one of six
genetically distinct gene products found in basement
membrane collagen.
Linear anti-basement membrane
antibodies as in Goodpasturesor

hemoptysisand hematuria
This patient presented with hematuria, arthralgias, and hepatosplenomegaly, having spent a coldnight at the ballpark one week ago. Serum complement levels are depressed and RF is positive. There are RBC cast present in the urine. The patient is hepatitis C positive. Renal biopsy shows a cresenticpattern This patient has:

associated with anemia mono
Type I
occurs at the same time as cancers of the blood and immune system. Multiple myeloma,
chronic lymphocytic leukemia and Waldenstrom’smacroglobulinemiaare all cancers of this
type
Types II and III
are associated with diseases which include autoimmune diseases such
as systemic lupus erythematosusor Sjogren’ssyndrome, and virusessuch as hepatitis C* or HIV.
A 23 y/o female with a recent URI presents with gross hematuria and mild proteinuria. There is no edema. She is mildly hypertensive. C3 and C4 are low. Renal biopsy and immunofluorescence microscopy shows Ig + C3 depositisin the mesangiumand subendothelialcapillary wall. Electron microscopy shows “tramtracking”. Best initial treatment should
ACE inhibitor. - treats proteinuria by dialating the efferent arteriole
tramtracking so it is mebranoproliferative
MembranoProliferativeGN
Type I
Discrete immune complexes* are found in the mesangium, subendothelial
(and subepithelial) space. Immune complexes are combinations of antigens, antibodies, and
complement which bind to each other and then become lodged in the kidney This activates
the immune system, which causes inflammation and damage to the kidney itself. C3 and C4
are low.
“Tramtracking” seen in capillary wall remodeling.
Hepatitis C is associated with 3 glomerulopathies:
- Immune complex mediated MPGN (nephritic, type I)
- Mixed CryoglobulinemicGN (nephritic)
- MembraneousNephropathy (nephrotic)
MembranoProliferativeGN
TypeII
This is also called dense deposit disease* with immunoglobulin staining for only C3.
When viewed under the microscope, continuous, dense ribbon-like deposits are found along
the basement membranes of the glomeruli,
tubules, and Bowman’s capsule. C3 is low.
complement is not blocked or getting broke down called c3 nephropathy
Treatment for Nephritic Diseases
- Treat hypertension with ACE inhibitors.
- Treat proteinuria with ACE inhibitors.
- Add methylprednisolone for proteinuria > 1 gm/d and GFR > 70 mL/min. (for minimal change disease)
- Add cyclophosphamide or mycophenolatemofetilfor GFR

afroamerican hiv and heroin
An AfroAmericanHIV patient on heroin is referred to you from the ED after presenting with pedal, periorbitaledema, hypertension, and urine analysis showing oval fat bodies.
Renal biopsy shows podocyteinjury with areas of sclerosis. What is the most likely diagnosis?
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
oval fat bodies. think
think nephrotic syndome
Focal Segmental GlomeruloSclerosis
Idiopathic disease may be related to heritable abnormalities of any of several podocyteproteins, to polymorphisms in the APOL1gene* in those of African descent, or to increased levels of soluble urokinasereceptors. Additionalycalled C1q nephropathy. Also seen in UV reflux, morbid obesity, heroin abuse, and HIV.
*APOL1polymorphisms is also a variable in increased risk for HIV-associated nephropathy.
A 55 y/o male with non-Hodkinslymphoma presents with peripheral edema, 40 pound weight gain, and a history of recurrent infections over the past 6 months. The patient’s abdomen is prominent and he complains of dyspnea.
Urinalysis is shown. Serum vitamin D levels are low and albumin is 1.6 gm/dL. Spot urine for protein/creatinineratio is 6.5 (6.5 gm/24 hours). Kidney biopsy shows thickened GBM with “spike and dome pattern” of subepithelialdeposits. This patient has which type of renal nephroticpathology?
membranous
Membranous nephropathy
(as with lymphoma, carcinoma,
penicillamine, gold, SLE, MCTD, thyroiditis, hepatitis B and C,
endocarditis, syphilis), is caused by immune complex deposition (IgG
and C3 with “spike and dome”) in the subepithelialarea.
stage 1 membranous nephropathy
In Stage I, there are subepithelial, electron dense deposits with no projection of basement membrane; Stage II: well-defined
projections of basement membrane between deposits; Stage III: deposits are surrounded by basement membrane; Stage IV:
electron dense material fades creating ‘holes’ in the GBM; Stage V: repair of membrane.
The antigen in primary membranous nephropathy is
phospholipase A2 receptor
on the podocytemembrane. Secondary cases are due to infections(HepB and C,
endocarditis, syphilis), autoimmune diseases(SLE, MCTD, thyroiditis), carcinomas
and certain drugs(NSAIDs, captopril).
The above patient suddenly develops nausea and vomiting with
flank pain. Ultrasound shows bilateral kidney enlargement. The
patient has developed renal
vein thrombosis.
In nephroticsyndrome there is loss
of antithrombinIII, protein C and S, as well as increased fibrinogen, increased production of *lipoprotein (a) and increased platelet aggregation (with the latter three being due to low albumin)
see increased B or lp(a), fibrinogen on electrophoresis

The light chains of MM (multiple myeloma) (BenceJones protein) have damaged the proximal tubule causing it to leak HCO3 as in the Fanconisyndrome.
Renal Disease of Myeloma
- “Myeloma kidney”
- Hypercalcemia
- Hyperuricemia
- Amyloidosis
- B cell infiltration
- Hyperviscosity
myeloma cells produce osteoclast activating (il1) factor, that causes bones to release calcium
Thiazide effect =
Gitelman’ssyn
it produces the same syndrome as what is listed below
hypkalemic alkalosis with hypomganesemia and hypocalciuria
Diuretics cause hypokalemic alkalosis both by decreased plasma volume (contraction alkalosis)
and, even in the formers absence, by presenting increased luminal Na to the collecting duct
principle cells.
