Primary Membranous Nephropathy.
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a unique glomerular lesion that is the most common cause of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in nondiabetic white adults. About 80% of cases are renal limited (primary MN, PMN) and 20% are associated with other systemic diseases or exposures (secondary MN). This review focuses only on PMN. Most cases of PMN have circulating IgG4 autoantibody to the podocyte membrane ...
متن کاملMembranous nephropathy with crescents.
Membranous nephropathy is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults and can be primary or secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus, chronic infection, or drugs. Rapid decline in renal function in patients with membranous nephropathy may be due to renal vein thrombosis, malignant hypertension, or an additional superimposed destructive process involving the renal parenchyma. Crescents are r...
متن کاملClinicopathological features of idiopathic membranous nephropathy combined with IgA nephropathy: a retrospective analysis of 9 cases
BACKGROUND The concomitant presence of idiopathic membranous nephropathy and IgA nephropathy is rare. Here, we report 9 cases of phospholipase-A2-receptor (PLA2R) positive idiopathic membranous nephritis combined with IgA nephropathy, while reviewing publications regarding the pathological characteristics of this glomerolonephritis complication. CASE PRESENTATION Nine cases of renal biopsy ti...

A forty-three year old female applied for a $200,000 ten year decreasing term policy. She admitted a history of "kidney disorder" on the application. She was not being treated or having any symptoms but stated that she was under observation. A routine paramed exam showed height 5’4", weight 140 lbs, and blood pressure 110/70. The BCP was normal. The HOS showed 210 mg/dl proteinuria. A reflex de...
متن کاملMembranous Nephropathy
Forty-one patients with a nephrotic syndrome and biopsy-proven membranous nephropathy were administered a 3 to 6-month course of cyclosporine (CsA; 4 to 5 mg/kg per day). Differential solute clearances were used to evaluate glomerular function before and after therapy. CsA lowered median proteinuria by 56%, from 7.3 to 3.2 g/24 h (P < 0.0001). Corresponding mean increments in serum albumin, imm...
