A case of IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis concurrent with Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis
We describe a 72-year-old man, who had been suffered from Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) several times, presented with hematoproteinuria with granular cast, and general lymphadenopathy. The immunological examination of the serum showed polyclonal hypergammagloburinemia with high value of IgG4. The renal biopsy revealed interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration, including infiltration of lymph...
متن کاملHenoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis.
Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a systemic vasculitic disorder first reported by Heberden in 1806. The association of purpura and joint pain was described by Schönlein in 1837, who termed it “peliosis rheumatica.” Henoch added a description of four children with skin lesions associated with colicky abdominal pain, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and joint pain in 1874, and in 1899 pointed out th...

11.1: Treatment of HSP nephritis in children 11.1.1: We suggest that children with HSP nephritis and persistent proteinuria, 40.5-1 g/d per 1.73 m, are treated with ACE-I or ARBs. (2D) 11.1.2: We suggest that children with persistent proteinuria, 41 g/d per 1.73 m, after a trial of ACE-I or ARBs, and GFR 450 ml/min per 1.73 m, be treated the same as for IgAN with a 6-month course of corticoster...
متن کاملRecognizing IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic fibroinflammatory disorder affecting nearly all organs, including the kidney. Tubulointerstitial nephritis (IgG4-TIN) is the most common form of IgG4-related kidney disease (IgG4-RKD) and is the focus of this concise review. OBJECTIVE The study aims to describe when IgG4-TIN should be suspected and to summarize th...
متن کاملLight-microscopic characteristics of IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis: distinction from non-IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis.
BACKGROUND IgG4-related disease is a multi-organ disorder characterized by a high level of serum IgG4 and dense infiltration of IgG4-positive cells into affected organs. In routine studies, however, IgG subclasses are not estimated. In the present study, we attempted to clarify the light-microscopic characteristics of IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) to facilitate distinction fro...
