Concomitant severe normocytic and normochromic anemia in poststreptococcal acute glomerulonephritis.
Although anemia frequently occurs in poststreptococcal acute glomerulonephritis (PSAGN), severe anemia is rare. We report severe normocytic, normochromic anemia (hematocrit, 19.8%) in PSAGN in a 6-year-old girl with edema, macrohematuria, and proteinuria for 1 month. The potential causes of severe anemia found in this case were: 1) longer duration of massive hematuria from onset of macrohemauri...

Typical clinical features of the disease include an acute onset with gross hematuria, edema, hypertension and moderate proteinuria (acute nephritic syndrome) 1 to 2 weeks after an antecede...
متن کاملAcute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis: immune deposit disease.
The possible role of immunologic mechanisms in acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis was suggested in 1908 by Schick (2), who compared the delay in appearance of serum sickness after injection of heterologous serum to the latent period between scarlet fever and onset of acute glomerulonephritis. Evidence in support of this concept is the depression of serum complement during the early stag...
