What are some non cystic manifestations of ADPKD?
Mitral valve prolapse, intracranial berry aneurysms, colon diverticula, renal cell carcinoma
Spot diagnosis: hametauria, flank pain, HTN, stroke, renal failure, palpable masses, UTIS
ADPKD
Definition of fanconi syndrome
Inherited/ acquired disorder of renal tubular transport
Door diagnosis: Pollution, polydipsia, dehydration, rickets/ osteomalacia
Fanconi syndrome
Define nephrocalcinosis
Parenchymal calcium deposition in kidney usually 2 hypercalcaemia
Timeline of IgA nephropathy (Bergers disease)
24-48 hours after URTI
How does IgA nephropathy present
Nephritic syndrome (visible haematuria)
24-48 hours after URTI
Presentation of post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis
2 weeks after infection with nephrotic syndrome
Haematuria, oliguria, oedema)
Management of IgA nephropathy
Prognosis?
High dose pred can reduce proteinuria and delay renal impairment
Immunosuppressive drugs if deteriorating
20-30% end up with end stage renal failure
Treatments for diabetes insipidus
Desmopressin
Thiazide Diuretics
NSAIDS
Sodium restriction
Difference between cranial and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Cranial- deficiency in ADH
Nephrogenic- insensitivity of kidneys to ADH
Goodpastures syndrome triad
- Pulmonary haemorrhage
- Glomerulonephritis
- Anti GBM antibodies
