==Overview==
==Overview==
Glomerular disease is a condition that affects the [[glomerulus]]. It consists of different diseases with different clinical courses and treatment options. Glomerular disease can be isolated hematuria, isolated proteinuria; acute or chronic glomerulonephritis, and nephrotic or nephritic features of glomerulonephritis. The end stage of all of these diseases will be glomerulosclerosi swhich is characterized by [[fibrosis]] of the [[glomerulus]], and end-stage renal disease.

==Differential Diagnosis==
==Differential Diagnosis==
Glomerulonephritis may be proliferative or non-proliferative and may be associated with [[Nephrotic syndrome|nephrotic]] or [[Nephritic syndrome|nephritic]] features. The various types of glomerulonephritides should be differentiated from each other based on associations, presence of [[pitting edema]], hemeturia, [[hypertension]], [[hemoptysis]], [[oliguria]], peri-orbital edema, [[hyperlipidemia]], type of [[antibodies]], [[Light microscope|light]] and [[Electron microscopy|electron microscopic]] features.

Overview

Glomerular disease is a condition that affects the glomerulus. It consists of different diseases with different clinical courses and treatment options. Glomerular disease can be isolated hematuria, isolated proteinuria; acute or chronic glomerulonephritis, and nephrotic or nephritic features of glomerulonephritis. The end stage of all of these diseases will be glomerulosclerosis which is characterized by fibrosis of the glomerulus, and end-stage renal disease.

Classification

Glomerular dieseases can be classified into several clinical and pathological syndromes as below:

Syndrome Disease
Acute nephritic syndromes
Nephrotic syndrome
Glomerular Deposition Diseases
Pulmonary-Renal Syndromes:
Basement Membrane Syndromes
Glomerular-Vascular Syndromes
Infectious Disease–Associated Syndromes

Also, glomerular diseases can be classified based on their clinical and urinary pattern in to below types:

Mild nephritc:

This category include mild nephritic sediment that is associated with less than half involvement of glomeruli.

Severe nephritic:

More severe clinical features such as edema, heavy proteinuria, hypertension, and/or renal failure may occur.

Nephrotic:

This syndrome is associated with heavy proteinuria and lipiduria.

Glomerular diseases also may classified by their presentation as below:

Glomerular hematuria:

1- Isolated hematuria

2- Glomerulonephritis (nephritic syndrome)

Proteinuria:

1-Isolated non-nephrotic proteinuria 

2- Nephrotic syndrome

Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis

Glomerulonephritis

Glomerulonephritis which is inflammation of the glomeruli can be classified based on pathogenic type into three subtypes:

  • Anti-GBM disease: Linear deposit
    1. Goodpasture syndrome (renal and lung involvement)
    2. Renal involvement alone
    3. Lung involvement alone

Glomerulonephritis (nephritic syndrome) also may be classified based on disease course into acute or chronic nephritic syndrome; primary vs secondary causes; or systemic vs renal limited disease. For more information about nephritic syndrome classifications click here.

Differential Diagnosis

The various types of glomerular diseases should be differentiated from each other based on associations, presence of pitting edema, hematuria, hypertension, hemoptysis, oliguria, peri-orbital edema, hyperlipidemia, type of antibodies, light and electron microscopic features. The following table differentiates between various types of glumerular diseases:

Glomerular diseases Disease History and Symtoms Laboratory Findings Pathology
History Systemic symptoms Hemeturia Proteinuria Hypertension Pitting edema Oliguria Nephrotic features Nephritic features Hyperlipidemia and hypercholesterolemia Auto-antibodies,
