Glomerulonephritis/nephritic syndrome Flashcards
nephritic syndrome
hematuria, decreased GFR, azotemia, HTN
azotemia
increased BUN/Creat
Post infectious/acute post streptococcal
kids, acute inflammation from SUBENDO immune complexes, no specific treatment, most recover
Post infectious/acute post streptococcal biopsy
IgG/C3 inside glomerulus.
EM: neutrophils in capillary
Membranoproliferative GN
chronic, low complement, subendoimmunecomplexes, underlying inflam/immune issue
HEPATITIS
Membranoproliferative GN biopsy
proliferative, splitting GM, IgG/C3 stain
crescentic
finding, not diagnosis. indicates severe inflammation/cap wall destruction. RAPID KIDNEY LOSS
crescentic types
IgG linear (anti GBM disease), IgG granular (immune complex), pouch immune (ANCA+ vasculitis
most common crescentic
pauci immune
IgG nephropathy/Henoch Schonlein Purpura
HSP” systemic capillaries IgA: glomer only (berger)
recurrent hematuria, ASIA, early onset
IgG nephron biopsy
mesangial cell wall expansion, IgA stain
Systemic Lupus
lupus nephritis, multiple AB types and complement involved
Lupus biopsy
