Glomerular Ds Flashcards
Absolute indication for hemodialysis
Other indication
Uremia
Others ecg change metabolic acidosis fluid overload unresponsive to med mgt
Clinical features of rpgn
Clinical features of rpgn
Progressive facial puffiness pedal edema high colored urine that progress to oliguria htn
Bp 150/100
Biopsy finding of rpgn
Crescent
Collapse of glomeruli
Parietal epithelial proliferation along with fibrin platelet
No of crescent more than size of crescent
Classification of rpgn is done on basis of
Immunofluorscene
Type 1to5
Most common rogn overall
Type 3 >2 >1
Most common rpgn in 1-20 yrs age grp
Type 2
Immune complex deposit
Good pasture syndrome is type of
Type 1 rpgn Linear igG +c3 deposit along capillary wall
SLE MPGN ADULT HSP ADULT PIGN are type of
Type 2 RPGN immune complex deposit
IgG IgA or full house
Type 3 ie pauci immune is found in
Anca vasculitis
Good pasture syndrome consist of
Rpgn
Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage
What is good pasture disease
Rpgn
Dah
Ab against NC1 domain of alpha 3 chain of type 4 collagen
Only glomerular disease which has smoking as risk factor
RPGN- anti GBM disease
Confirmation test for dah (rpgn)
Bal sputum :hemosiderin laden macrophage
Pft increased diffusing capacity of lungs for carbon monoxide
Bronchoscopy blood in air spaces
Most sensitive test for diffuse alveolar hemorrhage
Pft increased dlco
Most specific test for diffuse alveolar hemorrhage
Bal sputum
Hemosiderin laden macrophage
Treatment for good pasture disease
Plasma exchange
Steroids and cyclophosphamide for 3months
Anti gbm disease consists of
Rpgn
DAH
Anti gbm antibody
Type 4 rpgn i e double positive means
Type 1 with anti gbm and anca +
How to detect inheritance of alport syndrome from skin IF
If skin IF Abnormal - defect in alpha 5 i e x linked (80%)
If skin IF normal -defect in alpha 3&4 ie autosomal recessive or dominant
Pathogenesis of alport
Type 4 collagen alpha 1 23 class switch to
Alpha 345 - in glomerlus cochlea ocular bm
Alpha 556 epidermal bm
Amyloid deposit in amyloid kidney is most likely to be
Lambda > kappa
Staining characteristics to comfirm amyloid deposit
Extracellular hyaline amorphous nodule
Weakly pas positive
Congo red positive
Apple green birefringence on polarised microscopy
Polyclonal nodules can be found in
MPGN
Organized mono clonal ig deposit( lambda)
Suspect?
Amyloidosis
Secondary amyloidosis clinical feature are
Nephrotic syndrome and massive proteinuria Autonomic neuropathy Hepatomegaly Peripheral neuropathy Macroglossia
Prognosis of X linked inheritance
Autosomal recessive
Autosomal dominant
X linked in male progresses to esrd
AR severe esrd in both sexes
AD mild ds in both sexes
Manifestation of alport at the age of 5-10 yrs
Proteinuria htn
Start on ace
Manifestation of alport at the age of 5yrs and
At 10 yrs
Microscopic hematuria
Sr Creatinine increased
High or Low frequency sn hearing loss occurs at what age in alport
15 yrs
What are opthalmic manifestation of alport and at what age they appear
Most common dot and fleck retinopathy
Pathognomic anterior lenticonus
At the age of 20 yrs
Can ophthalmoscope be used to find opthalmic manifestation of alport syndrome
Oil drop appearance on fundoscopy
Thin gbm disease
Characteristics
Uniform thinning of GBM
No risk of Ckd
Microhematuria
No extrarenal feature
Basket weaven appearance
Alternating thickening and thinning of gbm
Is seen in
Alports syndrome
Prognosis after transplant in a pt of alports
Zero percent post transplant recurrence
5% post transplant good pasture disease in graft
Most common primary glomerulonephritis
IgA nephropathy
Aka bergers disease henoch scholein nephritis
Innocent bystander theory is wrt which disease
IgA nephropathy
Pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy
Defective galactosylation of polymeroc IgA1 produced by malt Not cleared by liver Antiglycan ab Immune complex Deposit in mesangium Kidney is innocent bystander
Other causes where increased polymeric IgA mucosal production leads to IGA nephropathy
Celiac disease
Whipples
IBS (UC>CD)
Other causes where defective uptake by liver lead to IgA nephropathy
Cirrhosis
Alcohol
NASH
Most common glomerular ds acc with hep B
Membranous nephropathy
