Feedback Introduction: Glomerular Disease Glomerular Disease: Condition affecting the glomerules in the kidney. Glomerular Disease: Many diseases affect kidney function by attacking the tiny units within the kidney where blood is cleaned. Glomerular diseases include many conditions with a variety of genetic and environmental causes, but they fall into two major categories: Glomerulonephritis (gloh-MAIR-yoo-loh-neh-FRY-tis) describes the inflammation of the membrane tissue in the kidney that serves as a filter, separating wastes and extra fluid from the blood. Glomerulosclerosis (gloh-MAIR-yoo-loh-skleh-ROH-sis) describes the scarring or hardening of the tiny blood vessels within the kidney.

About the HKMJ Subscriptions Reprints Search past issues Clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with glomerular diseases at a university teaching hospital: 5-year prospective review KW Chan, TM Chan, IKP Cheng Department of Pathology, The University of Hong Kong, Queen Mary Hospital, Pokfulam, Hong Kong OBJECTIVE: To examine the prevalence of glomerular disease in Hong Kong. DESIGN: Prospective review. SETTING: University teaching hospital, Hong Kong. PATIENTS: All patients who presented with suspected glomerular disease from 1993 through 1997. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Histopathological diagnosis from biopsy examination and clinical features of presentation. RESULTS: A total of 1629 consecutive percutaneous renal biopsies of native kidneys showed glomerular disease in 1413 cases. The most common clinical indication for renal biopsy was persistent proteinuria (n=735; 52.0%), while the most frequently found glomerular lesion was immunoglobulin A nephropathy (n=338; 23.9%). Minimal-change nephrotic syndrome (n=125; 8.8%) and immunoglobulin M nephropathy (n=11; 0.8%), were the most common glomerular diseases that presented with nephrotic syndrome. The male to female ratio for lupus nephritis was 1:14 (n=290), whereas for minimal-change nephrotic syndrome, the ratio was 1.8:1 (n=125). Immunoglobulin A nephropathy and membranous glomerulonephritis (n=117) affected approximately equal numbers of male and female patients. Familial fibrillary glomerulonephritis, a disease hitherto unknown in Hong Kong, was diagnosed in two siblings.

The co-founders and co-directors of the Network are Dr. Ronald J. Falk , Chief of the Division of Nephrology and Professor of Medicine, and Dr. J. Charles Jennette , Director of the Nephropathology Laboratory and Professor of Medicine in the Division of Pathology, both at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. While the Network was started in 1985 as a group of only 15 nephrologists in North Carolina, it has since grown to include over 400 nephrologists throughout North Carolina, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Washington and Minnesota. The Network has also vastly expanded the development and management of its clinical trials as well as sixteen large patient registries which follow the course of several different kidney diseases. In addition, a yearly meeting is held for the Network as a whole, functioning not only as a source for continuing education, but also as a consultation center for the participating physicians.

93. Berger Disease - Medstudents - Neprhology A review of Berger Disease giving most importance to etiology,treatment to be the most common form of primary glomerular disease throughout the world. http://www.medstudents.com.br/nefro/nefro2.htm

Nephrology Bernardo Boaventura Liberato Medstudents' Homepage Berger Disease Also known as primary IgA nephropathy, glomerulonephritis with IgA and IgG deposits and IgA mesangial nephropathy, Berger disease has a wide pattern of distribution and is believed to be the most common form of primary glomerular disease throughout the world. Although highly prevalent, geographic variations occur, which could be due to genetic as well as enviromental influences. Extensive mesangial IgA deposits (the characteristic pathologic feature of Berger disease), may also occur in a variety of multisystem, neoplastic and infectious diseases; when this occurs the term Secondary IgA Nephropathy should be applied. Examples of the most common causes are: Multisystem disease Schönlein-Henoch purpura Celiac Disease Dermatitis Herpetiformis Crohn Disease Neoplasia Carcinoma of lungs, larynx, pharynx and pancreas Infection Leprosy Toxoplasmosis HIV infection Others Chronic liver disease Portosystemic shunts In spite of the extremely varied clinical presentation, the most common feature leading to the diagnosis, by renal biopsy, is recurring episodes of macroscopic hematuria (which is generally the initial complaint). More than 80% of patients are between the ages of 16 to 35 years at the time of diagnosis. However, the disorder may be found at any age, although being uncommon before the age of 10 and after the age of 50. Thus, it should be considered a disease of children and young adults. There is a predilection for males (2:1), which disappears when affecting black persons (this disease is uncommon in blacks).

If complexes are formed in an excess of Ab then depositions will be . If complexes are formed in excess of Ag then deposits will be 4. Ag-Ab complexes can be located in these locations 5. Smaller complexes are generally deposited in location and usually contain IgG. Larger complexes are usually deposited in locations and usually contain 5. In contrast to immune complex glomerulonephritis, antiglomerular basement membrane disease (antiGBM) results when Ab are formed against the not from circulation. 6.
