Kidney damage is defined as pathologic abnormalities or markers of damage, including abnormalities in blood or urine tests or image studies.,Nephrotic syndrome,This is characterized by proteinuria (Typically 3.5g/24h),hypoalbuminemia ( less than 30g/dL ) and edema. Hyperlipidaemia is

It is important to identify patients in whom the proteinuria is a manifes
7、tation of substantial glomerular disease as opposed to those patients who have benign transient or postural (orthostatic) proteinuria.,Heavy proteinuria (albuminuria),Figure 3.,Hypoalbuminemia,Hypoalbuminemia is in part a consequences of urinary protein loss. It is also due to the catabolism of filt
8、ered albumin by the proximal tubule as well as to redistribution of albumin within the body. This in part accounts for the inexact relationship between urinary protein loss, the level of the serum albumin, and other secondary consequences of heavy albuminuria .,The salt and volume retention in the N
9、S may occur through at least two different major mechanisms. In the classic theory, proteinuria leads to hypoalbuminemia, a low plasma oncotic pressure, and intravascular volume depletion. Subequent underperfusion of the kidney stimulates the priming of sodium-retentive hormonal systems such as the
10、RAS axis, causing increased renal sodium and volume retention, In the peripheral capillaries with normal hydrostatic pressures and decreased oncotic pressure, the Starling forces lead to transcapillary fluid leakage and edema .,Edema,In some patients, however, the intravascular volume has been measu
11、red and found to be increased along with suppression of the RAS axis. An animal model of unilateral proteinuria shows evidence of primary renal sodium retention at a distal nephron site, perhaps due to altered responsiveness to hormones such as atrial natriuretic factor. Here only the proteinuric ki
12、dney retains sodium and volume and at a time when the animal is not yet hypoalbuminemic. Thus, local factors within the kidney may account for the volume retention of the nephrotic patient as well.,Edema,Figure 4.,Hyperlipidemia,Most nephrotic patients have elevated levels of total and low-density l
13、ipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol with low or normal high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol . Lipoprotein (a) Lp(a) levels are elevated as well and return to normal with remission of the nephrotic syndrome. Nephrotic patients often have a hypercoagulable state and are predisposed to deep vein thrombo
14、phlebitis, pulmonary emboli, and renal vein thrombosis.,Cause,Table 2 CAUSES OF THE NEPHROTIC SYNDROME,Table 3a NEPHROTIC SYNDROME ASSOCIATED WITH SPECIFIC CAUSES (“SECONDARY” NEPHROTIC SYNDROME),Table 3b NEPHROTIC SYNDROME ASSOCIATED WITH SPECIFIC CAUSES (“SECONDARY” NEPHROTIC SYNDROME),Pathology p
15、atterns and clinical presentations of idiopathic nephrotic syndome,In adults, the nephrotic syndrome is a common condition leading to renal biopsy. In many studies, patients with heavy proteinuria and the nephrotic syndromes have been a group highly likely to benefit from renal biopsy in terms of a
16、change in specific diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. Selected adult nephrotic patients such as the elderly have a slightly different spectrum of disease, but again the renal biopsy is the best guide to treatment and prognosis (Table 2, 3).,Renal biopsy,PRIMARY NEPHROTIC SYNDROME,Minimal Change Dise

Once secondary causes have been excluded, treating the adult nephrotic patient often requires a renal biopsy to define the pattern of glomerular involvement.,It leads to a multitude of other consequences , such as predisposition to infection and hypercoagulability.
