Page 3 (Membranoproliferative Glo + Chronic Glo) Flashcards
Glomerular damage as a result of renal disorder leads to marked decreased in renal functions and eventually to renal failure.
Chronic Glomerulonephritis
Chronic Glomerulonephritis Lab Findings
Hematuria
Proteinuria
Glucosuria
Electrolyte Imbalance
Casts (Broad)
GFR Decreased
BUN Increased
CREA Increased
Immune mediated disorder mostly affecting children characterized by cellular proliferation in capillary walls or glomerular basement membrane.
Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephitis
Types of Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis
Type I
Type II
Increased cellularity in the subendothelial cells of the (mesangium) interstitial area of the Bowman’s capsule, causing thickening of the capillary walls
Type I
Type I Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis progresses to
Nephrotic Syndrome
Extreme dense deposits in the glomerular membrane
Type II
Experience symptoms of chronic glomerulonephritis.
Type II
