Although no apparent change in plasma volume was noted using the volume of distribution of labeled human albumin, calculated plasma volume was reduced 13 +/- 8% during relapse when estimated from changes in hematocrit.

Renal Pathology Tutorial Written by: J. Charles Jennette, MD Produced by: F.W. Maddux, MD Renal Pathology Tutorial Home Page Normal Histology Clinical Presentation ... Type II MPGN Minimal Change Glomerulopathy Slide 12 shows the characteristic light microscopic finding, i.e., no abnormality. Sometimes there may be a little bit of mesangial hypercellularity in a few segments. Otherwise, any scarring, any infiltration of leukocytes, any necrosis, or any other substantial structural changes in glomeruli rule out a diagnosis of minimal change glomerulopathy. Slide 13 The ultrastructural finding diagramed in Slide 14 are effacement of visceral epithelial foot processes and epithelial microvillous transformation. Microvillous transformation of epithelial cytoplasm often accompanies effacement. The effacement of foot processes and microvillous transformation are not specific for minimal change glomerulopathy. Foot process effacement is characteristic for minimal change glomerulopathy and is required for the pathologic diagnosis of this disease; however, this same change is present in any patient with substantial proteinuria of any cause. Therefore, the diagnosis of minimal change glomerulopathy is one of exclusion, i.e., these ultrastructural changes should be present in the absence of light microscopic, immunohistologic or other ultrastructural features of any other cause of proteinuria. The electron micrograph in Slide 15 is from a patient with minimal change glomerulopathy and shows almost complete effacement of the visceral epithelial foot processes. There is condensation of the epithelial cytoskeleton near the basement membrane. If you don't know what this is, you can mistake it for subepithelial electron dense deposits, suggesting membranous glomerulopathy. It is actin condensation that takes place inside of visceral epithelial cytoplasm when there is effacement of foot processes, suggesting that there is movement of cytoplasmic structures during the effacement event.

Table of Contents Case report J NEPHROL 2003; 16: 148-153 Unexpected IgA nephropathy during the treatment of a young woman with idiopathic dermatomyositis: Case report and review of the literature Tzung-Hai Yen , Jeng-Yi Huang , Chen-Yin Chen Department of Nephrology, Department of Pediatrics, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan - China ABSTRACT: This article reports the unexpected discovery of IgA nephropathy in a 26-year-old Chinese woman 1.5 years after the onset of idiopathic dermatomyositis. The patient was taking immunosuppressive agents, prednisolone 25 mg and azathioprine 75 mg daily. Glomerulonephritis associated with idiopathic polymyositis/dermatomyositis is rare. A review of the medical literature indicates that the most common pattern seen in idiopathic polymyositis is mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. However, both membranous and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis are often seen in idiopathic dermatomyositis. It is still not clear, however, whether the humorally- mediated immune process in dermatomyositis and the cell-mediated immune process in polymyositis can explain the different patterns of occurrence of glomerular lesions in these two closely related disease entities.

Related Conditions While diagnosing NS, the clinician has to closely examine other similar conditions, as shown below. It may be noted that makes a suggested reading only for those who want to go into the detail of understanding Nephrotic Syndrome. Nephrotic Syndrome is the outcome of ample number of diseases that damage the filtering units of the kidneys in a certain way that allows them to leak protein into the urine. Hence there are array of diseases, which eventually end up in Nephrotic Syndrome. Some of the diseases that cause Nephrotic Syndrome, such as glomerulonephritis, affect only the kidney. Other diseases that cause Nephrotic Syndrome, such as diabetes and lupus, affect other parts of the body as well. It should be also noted that in vast majority of cases exact cause couldn’t be pinpointed. A. Local causes (primarily affecting kidneys) This group categorizes all those conditions, which directly and primarily affect kidneys and damage glomeruli. They are largely termed as nephropathies or glomerulopathies. Glomerulonephritis (GN) occupies peak position among glomerulopathies causing Nephrotic Syndrome. GN is a group of kidney diseases caused by inflammation of the internal kidney structures (glomeruli). The disease may be caused by specific problems with the body's immune system, but the precise cause of most cases is unknown. Specific disorders that are associated with glomerulonephritis and hence Nephrotic Syndrome include:

Discussion Back to Home This woman has generalized edema as noted by gain in weight and swelling of the face, legs, and hands. When fluid retention and edema occur (expansion of the interstitial component of the extracellular fluid volume), three possibilities immediately come to mind: congestive heart failure (CHF), cirrhosis of the liver, and the nephrotic syndrome. Less likely considerations are idiopathic cyclic edema, often characterized by abrupt weight changes correlating with the menstrual cycle, and hypothyroidism where brawny swelling can be mistaken for pitting edema. Venous or lymphatic obstruction in the legs can be ruled out by the presence of facial and hand edema too. Good exercise tolerance and lack of dyspnea or fatigue on exertion tend to exclude CHF. Further, there is no history of congenital heart disease, acute rheumatic fever, hypertension, or murmurs, which might be expected in a young woman with CHF. Absence of drug or alcohol abuse, and no history of jaundice make severe liver disease unlikely. Tolerance to cold, normal bowel habits, and absence of other related symptoms refute thyroid hypofunction; cyclic premenstrual edema is denied by the history. nocturia is a common manifestation of edema from any cause, and relates to more effective renal perfusion in the reclining position. Foamy urine occurs in patients with massive proteinuria. So far, then, the evidence points to the kidney as the source of her illness.
