Horseshoe kidney and nephrotic syndrome due to idiopathic membranous nephropathy.
Urinary tract infection, hydronephrosis, calculi, and tumor of the renal pelvis are knownas complications and multiple congenital anomalies can occur together with a horseshoe kidney (1). However, the occurrence of membranousnephropathy (MN) in a horseshoe kidney has been only reported in a few case reports (2, 3). Furthermore, horseshoe kidney and focal sclerosing glomerulonephritis were seen ...
متن کاملSpontaneous remission of nephrotic syndrome in idiopathic membranous nephropathy.
Spontaneous remission is a well known characteristic of idiopathic membranous nephropathy, but contemporary studies describing predictors of remission and long-term outcomes are lacking. We conducted a retrospective, multicenter cohort study of 328 patients with nephrotic syndrome resulting from idiopathic membranous nephropathy that initially received conservative therapy. Spontaneous remissio...
متن کاملNephrotic Syndrome and Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy Associated with Autosomal-Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
We report the case of a 38-year-old male with autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and concomitant nephrotic syndrome secondary to membranous nephropathy (MN). A 3-month course of prednisone 60 mg daily and losartan 100 mg daily resulted in resistance. Treatment with chlorambucil 0.2 mg/kg daily, low-dose prednisone, plus an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and an ...
متن کاملIdiopathic membranous nephropathy and nephrotic syndrome: outcome in the era of evidence-based therapy.
BACKGROUND Contemporary studies analysing the long-term outcomes of patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy and nephrotic syndrome in the era of evidence-based antiproteinuric and immunosuppressive therapies are sparse. Controversy also persists regarding which immunosuppression (IS) regimen to use. In this retrospective cohort study, we aimed to characterize time to partial remission (...
متن کامل20 years after methylprednisolone/chlorambucil treatment in idiopathic membranous nephropathy stage II-III with nephrotic syndrome.
There is now controlled evidence that a 6-month course with methylprednisolone and chlorambucil may favour remission of the nephrotic syndrome and may significantly improve the 10-year kidney survival in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy. We analyzed the outcome of 15 nephrotic patients (proteinuria 7.06 +/- 1.07 g/d), stage II-III membranous nephropathy, aged 37.93 +/- 2.32, 8 ma...
