Q

What is pyonephrosis

A

when there is complete obstruction high in tract.

Q

what types of nephropathies affect the calyces

A

chronic pyelonephritis and analgesic nephropathy

25
Q

on a contrast scan what is pretty indicative of vesicoureteral reflex

A

dilated ureters

26
Q

What does papillary necrosis look like in DM

A

pale gray necrosis limited to papilla

27
Q

what does analgesic nephropathy look like

A

red brown necrotic papilla sloughed into Calyx

28
Q

Xanthogranulmatous pyelonephritis is assoc with wat bacteria

A

proteus sp

29
Q

What types of drugs can cause acute drug induced interstitial nephritis

A

Sulfonamides, synthetic penicillins (methicillin, ampicillin) rifampin, diuretics(thiazides), NSAIDs
misc (allopurinol, cimetidine

30
Q

what are the clinical features of acute drug induced interstitial nephritis

A

fever, eosinophilia, interstitial renal parenchymal infiltrates, usually 15 days after exposure

31
Q

What is the pathogenesis behind drug induced acute interstitial nephritis

A

immune most likely
many have elevated IgE and IgE containing plasma cells and basophils in the lesions
making it Type I HS
some have granulomatous so type IV HS

32
Q

what are morphologicsigns of analgesic nephropathy

A

chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis and renal papillary necrosis(occurs 1st)

33
Q

What is the mech that phenacetin & aspirin mixtures cause papillary necrosis

A

depletes cell of glutathione and generates ROS

aspiring then inhibits vasodilation so susceptible to ischemia

34
Q

How do you differentiate papillary necrosis in DM compared to analgesic nephropathy

A

papillary in analgesic are at different states

DM caused necrosis the papillae are all at the same stage

35
Q

describe clinical course of analgesic nephropathy

A
more common in women
can't concentrate urine, can lead to renal tubular acidosis, renal stones
HA anemia, GI symptoms, HTN
UTI complications! often
gross hematuria if papillae sloughed off
36
Q

Why do COX2 inhibitors still affect kidney but not GI symptoms

A

because COX2 works in kidneys

37
Q

What does Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephrtisi look like morphologically

A

foamy macrophages and plasma cells
lymphocytes and PMNs
yellowish orange nodules
looks like RCC

38
Q

How would a child present with reflux nephro[athy

A

HTN
polyuria and nocturia
asymmetrically contracted kidneys with coarse scars, blunting, deformation of calyces

39
Q

What do the kidneys scars look like if b/l chronic pyelonephritis

A

asymmetric

40
Q

What are the 3 types of nephropathy assoc with hyperuricemic disorder

A

acute uric acid nephropathy
chronic urate nephropathy
nephrolithiasis

41
Q

what is acute uric acid nephropathy and what patients is it common in

A

uric acid crystal precipitate in renal tubules (mainly collecting ducts) causing obstruction leading to renal failure
common in leukemia, lymphoma and assoc with chemotherapy

42
Q

What is chronic urate nephropathy

A

gouty. monosodium urate crystals in distal tubules and collecting ducts deposit (needle like crystals)
urates induce tophus of foreign body giant cells

43
Q

describe occurences of uric acid stones

A
5-10% americans
80% unilateral
men more than women
hereditary predispositions
onset 20-30 y/o
44
Q

what are worse small or large kidney stones

A

small because can enter ureter and cause spasms and extreme pain

45
Q

What is nephrocalcinosis sometimes caused by

A

hyperCa, hyper PTH, multiple myeloma, vitamin D intoxication, metastatic cancer, excess Ca intake(milk alkali syndrome”

46
Q

Ca oxalate and phosphate are in what percentage of stones

A

70%

47
Q

where are Ca deposits in the tubules

A

in the mitochondria, cytoplasm and BM

48
Q

What are the predisposing conditions to Ca oxalate and phosphate stones

A
idiopathi hypercalciuria 50%
no known abnormality 15-20%
hyperuricosuria 20%
hypercalciuria and hyper Ca 10%
hyperoxaluria, enteric, primary (the rest %)
49
Q

what is the composition of the second most common types of kidney stones

A

magnesium ammonium phosphate

50
Q

what is the most common cause of acute phosphate nephropathy

A

patients consuming high doses of oral phosphate solutions for colonoscopy prep

51
Q

what is the clinical course of acute phosphate nephropathy

A

dehydration, precipitate Ca phosphate leading to renal insufficiency after several weeks

52

A
non renal malignancie
hypercaemia, hyper uricemia
amyloidosis
multiple myeloma
chemotherapy or irradiation
53
Q

What do bence jones proteins do in kdineys
