_______ kidney diseases include ectopic, horseshoe, agenisis, polycystic and cystic.
|
developmental
|
|
Nephrotic syndrome is characterized by ______ proteinuria, lipiduria and hypolbuminemia due to increased glomerular pereability resulting in severe edema.
|
massive >3.5 g/day
|
|
Nephritic syndrome is characterized by oliguria, ______ hematuria, uremia and ______
|
gross, Hypertension
|
|
Ag Ab complexes form due to a strep infection causing inflamation and increased numbers of mesangial cells and PMN's. This reaction compresses the GBM making it more permiable (nephritic syndrome) in this type of glomerulonephritis?
|
Acute
|
|
__________ glomerulonephritis is caused by injury resulting in increased glomerular pressure due to macrophage exudate --> nephritic syndrome
|
Crescentic
|
|
Goodpasture's syndrome, SLE, IgA nephropathy and Wegener's granulomatosis are examples of _____ _______
|
Crescentic GN
|
|
Which type of GN is noninflammatory, caused by a thickening of the GBM due to granular immune complex deposition --> nephrotic syndrome?
|
Membranous
|
|
________ is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in s and is non responsive to therapy.
|
Membranous GN
|
|
Lipoid nephrosis is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in children and is caused by the fusion of podocyte ______.
|
processes
|
|
Type of syndrome? Acute and Crescentic GN and Goodpasture's
|
nephritic (oligo/hematuria, hypertension)
|
|
________ and ______ are nephrotic (massive proteinuria).

IgA nephropathy, Lupus nephritis and Membranoproliferative GN are _______ syndromes.
|
mixed nephritic/nephrotic
|
|
This is the term used for multiple disease processes which: chronic --> end stage kidney disease, nephrotic/nephritic, do not respond to Tx and cause kidney shrinkage.
|
Chronic proliferative GN
|
|
Berger's nephropathy (IgA deposits) and Membranoproliferative GN (duplicate GBM = "tram track") are both examples of ____ _______ _______.
|
Chronic proliferative GN
|
|
Berger's nephropathy is the most common cause of GN in s T/F?
|
TRUE
|
|
Signs of end stage Gn include: uremia, renal/tubular atrophy, hyalinized _______.
|
glomeruli
|
|
Acute, cerescentic, chronic proliferative and membranous GN, lipoid nephrosis and end stage glomerulopathy are all _________ kidney diseases.
|
Immunological
|
|
_________ and _____ _____ are example of metabolic kidney diseases.
|
diabetes, urinary stones
|
|
Diabetes causes a thickening of the GBM which increases permiability (proteinuria) resulting in _______ syndrome.
|
nephrotic
|
|
Increase mesangial matrix --> nodular glomerulosclerosis (Kimmelsteil-Wilson disease) is due to this disease?
|
diabetes
|
|
Pathological complications due to diabetes include ischemia (atrophy, arteriosclerosis, papillary necrosis) and a predispostion to _____.
|
pyelonephritis (infection)
|
|
T/F kidney stones are usually found in the renal pelvis or bladder.
|
TRUE
|

The most common cause of sudden onset renal failure is ATN due to MI's and _____.
|
shock (hypovolemic, toxic)
|
|
Which circulatory kidney disease is caused by atherosclerotic plaques which cause infarcts, scaring and fibrosis?
|
Nephroangiosclerosis
|
|
Hypertension stimulates arteriole contraction leading to thickening and hyalinization of the vessel walls causing reduced perfusion. _____ is released due to perfusion contributing to further hypertension.
|
