RENAL FC Flashcards
2 key hemodynamic changes associated with diabetic nephropathy
Glomerular Hyperfiltration and Glomerular Hypertension
4 renal complications of diabetes
- Diabetes nephropathy.
- T4 RTA.
3.Increase Risk of Infections - Papillary Necrosis
How does hyperglycemia lead to formation of excess BM material?
AGE’s bind to RAGE.
T cells & MΦ = Excess BM material.
Vasc. SMC = synthesis of ECM .
Accumulation of ECM Proteins
Pre renal cause of acute kidney injury due to volume sequestration.
Pancreatits Peritonitis and Rhabdomyolysis
Gross Morphology of reflux associated chronic pyelonephritis
Scarred upper and lower poles with deformed and blunt calyces
Important renal manifestation of invasive cervical cancer
Bilateral hydronephrosis and renal failure
Morphology of analgesic nephropathy
Papillary necrosis associated with dystrophic calcification
2 microscopic features of chronic pyelonephritis
Thyroidization of tubules and Chronic Interstitial Inflammation and fibrosis
Morphology of ATN
Casts in tubular lumen
Mechanism of Drug induced AIN
Haptens -> bind to membrane -> IgE or Cell mediated Rx against tubular or cells in the BM
Radiological finding associated with acute pyelonephritis
Striated nephrogram
Deficiency in what enzyme necessary for breaking down bone within osteoclasts presents with RTA
Carbonic Anhydrase II.
Def triad= Osteopetrosis + Renal Tubular Acidosis + Cerebral Calcification
MC cause of AKI
ATN
Complications of Acute Pyelonephritis
- Papillary Necrosis
- Perinephric Abscess
- Pyonephrosis
- Sepsis
- Chronic Pyelonephritis
Why is the medulla Spared in diffuse cortical Necrosis
Vasa Recta that supply arterial blood to the medulla arise from JXM efferent arterioles which are before vessesls that supply the outer cortex
Morphology of obstruction associated chronic pyelonephririts
Diffuse scarring and Thinned out cortex
4 renal complications of sickle cell
- renal infarct
- hematuria
- Hyposthenuria (low solutes in urine)
- Papillary Necrosis
Intrinsic cause of AKI
- Drug induced ATN
- Occlusion of large vessels
- obstruction
- glomerular dz’s
2 Consequences of PUV
CKD and VUR
Diagnostic study of preference for VUR
voiding cystourethrography
MC cause of urinary obstruction in newborn male
PUV
