• Glomerular diseases constitute some of the major problems in nephrology; indeed, chronic glomerulonephritis is one of the most common causes of chronic renal failure in humans.
• Glomeruli may be injured by a variety of factors and in the course of a number of systemic diseases. Systemic immunologic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), hypertension and polyarteritis nodosa, diabetes mellitus, often affect the glomerulus.
• These are termed secondary glomerular diseases to differentiate them from disorders in which the kidney is the only or predominant organ involved.

* Classification of glomerular diseases:
I. Primary G.N (the disease affects kidney only): • Minimal change glomerular disease (Lipoid nephrosis).
• Acute diffuse proliferative G.N:
– Post-streptococcal G.N.
– Non-post-streptococcal GN.
• Rapidaly progressive G.N.
• Membraneous G.N.
• Membranoproliferative G.N.
• Chronic G.N.

• Most of the 1ry glomerular disease are due to immunologic mechanisms.
• To study any glomerular disease, a renal biopsy is taken and examined by 3 types of microscopes:
1. Light microscope: to examine the structure of glomeruli, tubules and interstitium.2. IF (immune flourescent microscope): to detect the type of deposited immunoglobulin in the glomeruli.3. EM (electron microscope): to detect the site of immune complex, either sub-epithelial, sub-endothelial, mesangial or basement membrane..

• Chemical change in the glomerular basement membrane causing protein loss.

*Etiology & pathogenesis:
• Immune complex reaction; (nephrotegenic strains of group A beta haemolytic streptococci + Ig G), the complex is deposited in the glomeruli with subsequent complement activation acute inflammation.

* CP (Clinical picture):• In the classic case, a young child abruptly
develops malaise, fever, nausea, oliguria, and hematuria (smoky or cocoa-colored urine) 1 to 2 weeks after recovery from a sore throat.
• The patients exhibit red cell casts in the urine, mild proteinuria (usually less than 1 mg/day), peri-orbital edema, and mild to moderate hypertension.

• In adults, the onset is more likely to be atypical, with the sudden appearance of hypertension or edema, frequently with elevation of serum creatinine. Important laboratory findings include elevations of anti-streptococcal antibody (ASO) titers and a decline in the serum concentration of C3 (consumed).

• More than 95% of affected children eventually recover totally with conservative therapy aimed at maintaining sodium and water balance.
• A small minority of children (perhaps less than 1%) do not improve, become severely oliguric, and develop a rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis.
• Some of the remaining patients may undergo slow progression to chronic glomerulonephritis.

• In adults, the prognosis is bad. Most of the patients pass to rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis or chronic renal failure.

Nephritic syndrome
- A syndrome formed of:1. Haematuria.2. Oliguria.3. Peri-orbital oedema.4. Hypertension.
- The most common cause of nephritic syndrome in children is post-streptococcal GN.

Nephrotic syndrome- A syndrome formed of:
1. Hypoproteinaemia.2. Proteinuria .3. Oedema.4. Hypercholesterolaemia.
- The most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in children is minimal change glomerular disease.
- The most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults is membranous GN.
