What is iga nephropathy

iga nephropathy is what disease? many times diagnosed with iga nephropathy patients and their families often feel strange name of this disease, we are not very understanding iga nephropathy, without a basic understanding, you want to heal psychologically from it or from the nursing is a more difficult thing, following small series and everyone will work together to understand what is iga nephropathy.

iga nephropathy is kidney immunopathology same, but the clinical manifestations, pathology and prognosis vary widely in primary glomerular diseases.

Mainly high incidence in children and adolescents, according to the pathology can be divided into different levels. Therefore, targeted therapies are different, clinical iga nephropathy on renal biopsy can be divided into several levels, it is because iga nephropathy pathological grading is very complex, for this problem, and now we take a look at what the pathological iga nephropathy different bars.

iga nephropathy in patients with early symptoms of kidney disease period, only minor lesions, mild glomerular mesangial cells increased, no segmental sclerosis, no crescent, no tubular and interstitial lesions, patients No effect.

iga nephropathy patients if the disease is not well controlled much, then there will be focal proliferative glomerular lesions. Generally less than fifty percent of the glomerular cell proliferation, cell proliferation initially be limited to the mesangial area, but also may be due to capillary proliferation induced glomerular capillary loop obstruction. Visible crescent. For the vast majority of patients on the disease will lead to segmental glomerular cell proliferation.

If the development of the disease to the late, then appeared the case advanced chronic glomerular lesions, half of the patients will appear glomerulonephritis sclerosis. Can be expressed as the above glomerular lesions, cortical tubules than 40% of the small tube or a small number of tubes to reduce shrinkage. From another point of simple analysis, the treatment of patients with renal disease difficulty level gradually increased, has a close relationship. More severe kidney disease, treatment more difficult.

Thus, iga nephropathy but also to children, adolescents, the main kind of kidney disease population, although pathological sounds more complicated, but still can be treated, children and their families do not have to worry too much, early detection and early treatment, the condition can be stability control.
