renal pathology Flashcards
agenesis
born without kidneys
hypoplasia
small, distorted kidneys
horshoe kidney
malformation
ectopic kidneys
not in location
PKD that has an adult life presentation:
- inheritance
- presents in adulthood as
- what do we see
- what usually occurs at midlife
- inheritance: autosomal dominant
- presents in adulthood as mass, pain, hematuria and HTN
- we see enlarged kidneys with large cysts and berry aneurisms
- ESRDoccurs at midlife
pathophysiological mechanism in PKD- AD (2)
- cell proliferation, alt. in cell planar polarity, remodeling of the ECM, cell cilia malfunction
- transepithelial fluid secretion leading to the outpouching
PKD that presents at birth
- inheritance
- what do we see
- additional organs
- teenage
- autosomal recessive 2. enlarged kidneys with small cysts and pulmonary hypoplasia 3. hepatic fibrosis, systemic HTN and cysts in other organs 4. ESRD at teenage
alport syndrome and thin basement membrane disease disorders of the
collagen IV molecule
alport syndrome
a. inheritance
b. mutation that results in
c. triad
a. X-linked b. mutation in collagen resulting in shorter molecule and abnormal GBM resulting in membrane breaks - triad: visual disturbances, hearing loss, renal failure
thin basement membrane disease
a. more common in
b. inheritance
c. mutation
d. GBM weird
e. disease is
a. more common in asian population b. Autosomal dominant c. mutation in collagen 4 with altered molecule d. thin GB< with breakage nad microhematuria e. benign disease
ESRD other complications
- diabetes
- HTN
- primary glomerular disorders
- cystic disorders

horshoe kidney

dysplastic kidney

sporadic cysts

benign renal cysts

PKD AD

acquired cystic disease- dialysis associated

CT abdomen advanced PKD

berry aneurysm

PKD AR

normal GBM

abnormally thin GBM which is indicative thin basement membrane lesion

abnormally split and laminated GBM see the nl and thin fenestration indicative of alport
what is this

ESRD
