Thin basement membrane nephropathy and renal transplantation.
The clinical implications of thin basement membrane nephropathy (TBMN) in renal transplantation must be considered from the perspectives of both the allograft recipient and the donor. Most individuals with TBMN have a benign course, but some develop end-stage renal failure (ESRF) and undergo transplantation. ESRF in patients with TBMN often results from the presence of additional glomerular or ...

متن کاملDisease of the Month Thin Basement Membrane Nephropathy
T hin basement membrane nephropathy (TBMN) is the most common cause of persistent hematuria in children and adults, the other main causes being IgA nephropathy and Alport syndrome (1–3). In addition to hematuria, patients with TBMN usually have minimal proteinuria, normal renal function, and uniformly thinned glomerular basement membranes (GBM), as determined by electron microscopy. TBMN, which...
متن کاملThin basement membrane nephropathy associated with other glomerular diseases.
Many reports confirm that thin basement membrane nephropathy (TBMN) commonly occurs together with other glomerular diseases such as minimal change glomerulonephritis, diabetes, membranous nephropathy, immunoglobulin (Ig)A glomerulonephritis, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. We postulate 3 explanations for these observations. The association of minimal change glomerulonephritis with TBMN ...
متن کاملThe clinical features of thin basement membrane nephropathy.
Thin basement membrane nephropathy (TBMN) is a common, lifelong condition affecting the kidneys that is characterized by microscopic glomerular hematuria, minimal or no proteinuria, and normal renal function. It often is discovered incidentally, and usually has an excellent prognosis. Many cases are familial and show autosomal-dominant inheritance. The defining characteristic is a glomerular ba...
