The ERA-EDTA Database on Recurrent Glomerulonephritis following renal transplantation.
Recurrence of glomerulonephritis (GN) and newly occurring GN (de novo GN) in the transplanted kidney are a frequent cause of allograft loss at 10 years [1] (Table 1). For example, studies in large US databases found a recurrence of the underlying disease in 3–8% of the patients [2, 3]. However, these retrospective analyses are biased by many confounding factors, such as the enormous disparity i...
متن کاملInvited Comment Recurrent glomerulonephritis following renal transplantation: an update
Based on the literature, recurrent disease is observed in 4–20% of the patients receiving a kidney transplant and will lead to graft failure in 2–5% [1–6]. In a large study of the University of WisconsinuUSA that evaluated 1557 patients, followed for a mean of 7.3 years after transplantation, recurrence of the underlying disease was observed in 98 cases, i.e. 8% [7]. More than 75% of these case...

متن کاملInfective endocarditis mimics ANCA associated glomerulonephritis
Background: Sub-acute bacterial endocarditis (SBE) rarely presents with features of a small vessel vasculitis. Patients with SBE can also develop multiple serological abnormalities including ANCA. In this report, we present a case of infective endocarditis mimicked ANCA associated glomerulonephritis.Case presentation: A 57-year old male with a clinical picture of rapidly progressive renal failu...
متن کاملGlomerulonephritis.
GN in the adolescent requires prompt diagnosis. When even mild degrees of renal insufficiency are documented, immediate referral to a nephrologist is necessary to ensure that serious conditions, such as RPGN, are correctly diagnosed and aggressively managed. In an adolescent with macroscopic hematuria, the demonstration of dysmorphic RBCs, RBC casts, and proteinuria indicates that the bleeding ...
