8
Initial Diagnosis Fever? Infection vs autoimmune Disease Murmur ; M R vs VSD HEAMATURIA Urine Sample with hematuria
9
Initial Diagnosis Hematuria Systemic ◦ Hemolytic Anemia ◦ Embolization ◦ Anti-coagulant Surgical ◦ Stone ◦ Tumor ◦ Papillary ◦ APKD Medical ◦ Acute kidney injury ◦ Glomerulonephritis ◦ Rapid pogressive glomerulonephrtis ◦ IgA Nephropathy
10
Differential Diagnosis of Hematuria ARF-AKI-ATN ◦ Acute glomerulonephritis (post-infection) ◦ RPGN ◦ IgA ◦ Hemolytic uremic syndrome ◦ NSAID Hemolytic AnemiaIgA Nephropathy hemolytic uremic

Treatment Patient receive ceftriaxone IV and IV fluid TREAT HYPERKALEMIA
20
Follow – up: S Cr – 300 µmmol/L JVP Oliguria Edema
21
Investigations for Glomerulonephritis Regular follow-up and U&E Antistreptolysin O (ASO) ANA, Anti-DNA C 3 -C 4 ANCA (p,c) HCV Antibody (HBsAg) HIV RF Cryoglobulin Anti-basement membrane anti-body (with lung hemorrhage
22
Management IV Lasix Repeat urine analysis ◦ RBC cast Kidney biopsy : RPGN Serology tesy : all negative RF: -negative Final diagnosis Anti-glomerular basement membrane anti-bodies
23
Glomerular Disease – Acute Glomerulonephritis Post infectious glomerulonephritis Group A Strep Infection Infective endcarditis Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis : Systemic lupus erythematosus Hepatitis C virus IgA Nephropathy (Buerger’s Disease) Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis Type I RPGN (direct antibody) Good Posture syndrome Type II RPGN (immune complex) Post infectious Systematic lupus erythematosus Henoch – Schonlein pupura (IgA) Type III RPGN (pauci-immune) Vasculitis (, Wegener granulomatosis; poiyarteritis nodosa-microscopic polyangitis)
24
Complications of acute glomerulonephritis Hypertension Pulmonary edema Hyperkalemia Encephalopathy convulsion Electrolyte disturbance Pericaditis Gastroentritis Peptic ulcer
25
Management of Glomerulonephritis Treat the cause Conservative management Dialysis
26
Acute post-infection glomerulonephritis Often associated with group A B-hemolytic streptococcal type 12 infection Also staphylococcus or viruses
27
Acute Glomerulonephritis Symptoms occur 10-21 days after infection ◦ Hematuria ◦ Proteinuria (<1gm/24 hr) ◦ Decreased GFR, oliguria ◦ Hypertension ◦ Edema around eyes, feet and ankles ◦ Ascites or pleural effusion Antistreptolysin O (ASO), Low C 3, normal C 4 ◦ Kidney biopsy immune complexes and proliferation
29
Proliferative GN-poststretococcal This glomerulus is hypercellular and capillary loops are poorly defined This is a type of proloferative glomerulonephritis known as post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis
30
Post-streptococcal GN Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis is immunologically mediated, and the immune deposits are distributed in the capillary loops in a granular, bumpy pattern because of the focal nature of the deposition process
32
Post-streptococcal glomerunephritis Conservative Treatment (acute kidney injury Improves 1 – 4 weeks, C3 normalizes in 1 – 3 months, hypertension improves 1 – 3 months, intermittent hematuria x 3 years 99% complete recovery in children and 85% in adult
33
IgA nephropathy (Buerger’s Disease) Most common acute glomerulonephritis in US, South East Asia Associated with H.S. Purpura Upper respiratory (50%) in 1 – 2 days (synpharyngitic hematuria) Primary versus secondary (IBD, Liver disease, SLE, vasculitis) 50% risk of CRF Proteinuria, hypertension, renal insufficiency predict worse prognosis 50% increase IgA, normal compliments TREATMENT OF CONSERVATIVE ACEi HIGH RISK: patient prednisone and alkylating agent Cyclophosphamide-azothroprim & ASA & ACEi & tosilectomy
34
Rapid Progressive GN Type I RPGN (direct antibody) ◦ Good pasture syndrome Type II RPGN(immune complex) ◦ Post infectious ◦ Systematic lupus erythematosus ◦ Henoch-schonlein purpura (IgA) ◦ cryoglobulinemia Type II (pauci-immune) ◦ Vasculitis (, Wegener granulomatosis, microscopic polyangitis,poplyarteries nodosa)
35
Rapidly progressive GN Develops over a period of days and weeks Primarily adults in 50’s and 60’s Progresses to renal failure in a few weeks or months Hematuria is common, may see proteinuria, edema or hypertension
36
Rapidly progressive (Crescentic) Glomerulonephritis Morphology ◦ Crescent formation ◦ Crescents are formed by proliferation of parietal cells ◦ Infiltrates of WBC’s & fibrin deposition in Bowman’s space ◦ EM reveals focal ruptures in the GBM
41
Goodpasture Syndrome Antibody formation against pulmonary and glomerular capillary basement membranes Damage glomerular basement membrane Men – 20 to 30 years of age Pulmonary hemorrhage and renal failure TREATMENT Early treatment is essential Pulse steroid (10 mg/kg/day for 3 – 5 days) Cyclophosphamide Plasmapheresis
42
Goodpasture’s syndrome This immunoflourescence micrograph shows positivity with antibody to IgG has a smooth, diffuse, linear pattern that is characteristic for glomerular basement antibody with Goodpasture’s syndrome
43
Microscopic Polyangitis Necrotizing vasculitis of small – and medium – sized vessels in both the arterial and venous circulations Frequently involves the lung and the kidney with typical complications of hemorrhage and glomerulonephritis Usually positive p-ANCA (anti- myeloperoxidase) Usually positive c-ANCA (ant-proteinase 3)
46
Treatment Initial Therapy Combination cyclophosphamide-corticosteroid therapy Pulse methyl prednisone (10 mg/kg/day for 3-5 days) A slow steroid taper, with the goal of reaching 20 mg of prednisone per day by the end of two months and an overall glucocorticoid course of between 6 and 9 months Either daily oral or monthly intravenous cyclophosphamide
47
Treatment Plasmapheresis Severe manifestations of pumonary hemorrhage on presentation Dialysis – dependent renal failure unpon presentation Concurrent anti-GBM antibodies
