nephritic syndrome symptoms

Oliguria, proteinuria, haematuria, oedema & hypertension

Nephrotic syndrome features

Proteinuria ( >3 gm/DL), hypoalbiminuria,( 1-3 gm/DL, reversed ratio) hyperlipidemia, lipiduria, hypercoagubility

Oedema in nephritic vs nephrotic

Nephritic due to sodium & water retention; nephrotic is due to increase on colloid osmotic pressure along with sod & water retention

Acute post streptococcal GN morphplogy

Gross: enlarged, flea bitten appearance of cortex due to petechial haemmoraghes. Microscopy: glomerulus is hypercellular due to proliferation of mesangial, endothelial cells and polymorph's & monocytes; interstitium has oedema. Tubules & vessels NS. electron microscopy shows electron dense HUMPS on the epithelial side of GBM. Immune florescence shows irregular deposits mainly IGG and IGM

Diabetic nephropathy defn

Syndrome of renal symptoms in DM- nephrosclerosis, diabetic pyelopnephritis, vascular symptoms, tubular (AM lesions)

Diabetic nephrosclerois EP

Hyperglycemia causes renal hypertension, renal hyper perfusion, protein deposition, sclerosis

Morphology of Diabetic nephrosclerosis

Grossly: DIFFUSE & NODULAR. Diffuse: gross fibrin deposition. Places- GBM lining, mesangium, fibrin CAP- peripheral membrane of Bowman's capsule, hyaline drop- lining of capillary of glomerus

Microscopy of glomerular sclerosis

Eosinophilc, acellular , fibrin deposits

Other lesions in D. nephropathy describe

Tubular- armani ebstein lesions due to glycogen deposits. Vascular atheroma, diabetic pyelonephritis

WILMS tumor defn

Embroyonic tumor of primitive epithelial & mesenchymal tissue of the kidney. most common and tumor in young children be 1-6 yrs

Wilma tumor etiopathogenesis

Defect in chromosome 11p13; monozygotic twins; seen with other congenital anomalies; malignancies like osteosarcoma, neuro, retinoblastoma

Wilma tumor gross

Large, spheroidal, replaces most of the kidney. Usually unilateral. C.S shows soft, fishflesh like Grey white or creamy yellow tumor with foci of necrosis & hemorrhage. Grossly identifiable tubular & cartilaginous elements.

Willms Tumor microscopy

Lots of an a plastic, sarxomatoid Timor cells. Abortive tubules, poorly formed glomerular structures, mesenchymal elements like cartilage, bone, fat & fibrous tissue

Label

Anaplastic sarcomatoid Timor cells, poorly formed glomerulus, abortive tubules

Adenocarcinoma of kidney

Malignant tumor. pathogenesis: tobacco- 20-30% of RNC, genetic factors: con hippel lindau VHL disease, hereditary clear cell RCC, papillary RCC, chromophobe RCC/ cystic diseases of kidney: nephroma, adult polycystic disease. Other risk factors: obesity, asbestos exposure

Morphology of renal adenomcarcinoma

Poles of kidney, solitary & unilateral, large, golden yellow, circumscribed. N & h. Cystic change


Microscopy- refer chart

Types and histology

Clear cell type- solid, trabacular. Papillary- cuboidal with round nuclei. Granular- acidophilic cytoplasm, chromophobe- halo...

Urinary calculi pathohenesis

Types of stones diagram

Lupus nephritis

Renal manifestations of systemic lupus. Incidence 40-70%. Two cardinal manifestations are proteinuria & hematuria. Red cell casts, fatty casts & leukocytes


Types: 1) minimal lesions, 2) mesangial 3) focal segmental 4) diffuse profilerative 5) membranous 6) sclerosing


Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis

Acute reduction in renal function resulting in renal failure in 2-3 wks. Formation of crescents is characteristic. This is outside glomerular capillaries. formed from epithelial cells lining BC. stimulus is presence of fibrin in capsular space.

Morphology of RPGN

kidneys are enlarged & pale with smooth outer surface . c.s shows pale cortex & congested medulla.


glomeruli- cresesents which are collections of pale staining polygonal cells tend to be elongated. They compress glomeruli


Tubules- hyaline deposits


Intestitium- oedema & fibrosis


Vessels- no change


Electron microscopy: good pastture linear deposits, post infectious show electron dense sunendothelial deposits


If: linear pattern- GP


Granular- posy infectious RPGN


Scanty -pauci immune
