Overview

Causes of nephritic syndrome vary by age. Causes of nephritic syndrome include post-infectious glomerulonephritis, IgA nephropathy (Berger disease), thin basement membrane disease, and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis.

Causes

Age plays an important role in identifying the cause of nephritic syndrome. Nonetheless, age should not be the only factor in defining the etiology of nephritic syndrome.[1]

Adapted from Rose BD. Pathophysiology of renal diseases, ed. 2. New York, McGraw-Hill, 1987,p. 167
  • There are a number of different causes of nephritic syndrome such as:[1]
Primary renal diseases Secondary renal diseases: Multi-system disease: Allergy
Acute allergic tubulointerstitial nephritis
