What are the 4 cystic disorders?
Cystic disorders can either be __ or ___
genetic or acquired
Simple cysts are from:
destruction or reduction of blood flow to the renal cortex
Acquired renal cysts are from:
ppl that are on long term dialysis and have chronic kidney disease.
*in ppl over 50 yrs old
Autosomal Dominant:
Autosomal Recessive
What are the 2 types of Immune Mechanisms: Glomerular Disease
Circulating antigen-antibody complex deposition can be a result of what common virus?
strep throat- travels through body and gets stuck in glomerulus. WBC attack glomerulus bc it’s lodged
Nephronitis and Medullary Cystic disease affects what part of the glomerulus?
medullary tubules
Glomerular Damage can be seen as 3 changes in cells:
Nephritic vs Nephrotic disease:
Nephritic: hematuria, mild proteinuria, ^BP, Azotemia
* acute onset- caused by inflammation
Nephrotic: Proteinuria, Hypoalbuminemia, severed edema
* at risk for atheroscelorsis
* problems with clotting and bleeding (albumin)Disorders of Glomerular Function:
presence of nitrogensou wastes in the blood, oliguria, and hematuria are all categorized as:
excess wastes in the blood
Defined as: Azotemia
Nephritic syndromes:
a proliferative inflammatory response with Azotemia, oliguria, and hematuria as main symptoms:
Acute Postinfectious Glomerulonephritis
This disease has no evident cause and can be attributed to immune response (lupus). It develops rapidly and creates an influx of immune cells into glomerulus, causing deposits that obstruct flow.
Rapidly Progressie Glomerulonephritis
This Nephritic syndrome specifically causes rapid pulmonary hemorrhage and renal failure
Good Pasture Syndrome
T or F
Those with Nephrotic syndrome are less responsive to drugs?
True
Patients with Nephrotic syndrome are more likely to get___.
Atherosclerosis
- deficiency of albumin in blood triggers liver to produce more of it. This amps up LDL production, this creates atherosclerotic buildup over time.
A lack of albumin in blood supply creates what:
- increased free drug
Excess proteins in urine means the blood has less what in it?
How do you diagnosis renal disease?
renal biopsy
Chronic Pyelonephritis is caused by:
Pyelonephritis is caused by:
kidney infection
Acute- usually from bacterial infection, cleared up with antibiotics
Chronic- recurring infections, usually due to malformation of ureter flap or entrance into bladder, trapping infection into bladder
*treatment-remove obstruction, fix malformation
