young child with dark urine, periorbital edema, proteinuria

Question 5

lab findings poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis

Answer 5

positive antistreptolysin o titer, RBC casts in urine, decreased levels of complement

Question 7

EM findings of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis

Answer 7

subendothelial immune complex deposition (C3 and IgG)

Question 8

IF findings of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis

Answer 8

granular appearing from immune complexes

Question 9

H & E stain of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis

Answer 9

tram-track appearance due to splitting of the basement memrane with mesangial proliferation

Question 10

differentiation between type 1 and 2 of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis

Answer 10

type II membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis will have the presence of C3 nephritic factor leading to dense deposit disease

Question 11

what does C3 nephritic factor do?

Answer 11

stabilizes C3 convertase so type II membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis pts will have low C3 levels
