Cyclosporine in the treatment of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
BACKGROUND Therapeutic approach to patients with idiopathic membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis is still controversial. Because it is more common in developing countries, the studies about it are limited. METHODS We used cyclosporine to treat 18 patients with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis who were resistant to other treatment protocols such as using aspirin, dipyridamole, or s...
متن کاملNon Hodgkin's lymphoma associated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis: rare case of long term remission with chemotherapy: a case report
INTRODUCTION Although membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis has been reported to occur in association with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, information concerning the long term effects of treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma on the associated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis is limited. CASE PRESENTATION The current report describes a patient who presented with the abrupt onset of hypertensi...
متن کاملRecurrent glomerulonephritis in the renal allograft: an update of selected areas.
Glomerular diseases, including diabetes and various forms of glomerulonephritis, account for more than 70% of patients undergoing renal transplantation. Among these patients, more than 40% develop significant proteinuria, and around 15% develop persistent nephrotic syndrome. The most common cause of posttransplantation proteinuria is chronic allograft nephropathy (60%), followed by recurrent (1...
متن کاملPathogenesis and approaches to therapy of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
In 1965, it was observed that patients with glomerulonephritis with persistently low serum concentrations of C3 evolved to have similar glomerular morphologic characteristics, particularly recognizable in biopsy specimens stained by the Jones methenamine silver technique [1]. Subsequent observations have indicated that although long-standing hypocomplementemia is commonly observed and is unique...
متن کاملCoeliac sprue-associated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN).
Coeliac sprue (CS) may occur in association with immune complex-mediated diseases, including IgA nephropathy, dermatitis herpetiformis and thyroiditis. An association of CS with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) type 1 is rare, with only two prior cases reported. Here we describe a 45-year-old man with no prior medical history who presented initially with microhaematuria, subnephr...
