Isolated proteinuria with specified morphological lesion : dense deposit disease - what does this mean

Isolated proteinuria with specified morphological lesion: dense deposit disease is a rare kidney disorder caused by an abnormal immune response that leads to the deposition of immune complexes and proteins in the glomerular basement membrane. this causes inflammation, scarring, and narrowing of the glomerular capillaries, leading to proteinuria, hematuria, and renal failure.

What happens during the disease - isolated proteinuria with specified morphological lesion : dense deposit disease

Isolated proteinuria with specified morphological lesion: dense deposit disease is a rare disorder characterized by the formation of abnormal immune complexes in the glomeruli of the kidneys. these complexes cause inflammation and scarring, leading to a decrease in the ability of the kidneys to filter waste from the blood. this leads to an increase in the amount of protein in the urine, and the dense deposits in the glomeruli can be seen on a biopsy.

How does a doctor diagnose

  • Urine analysis
  • Blood tests
  • Imaging tests such as X-ray, CT scan, and MRI
  • Kidney biopsy
  • Renal ultrasound
  • Renal function tests
  • Renal angiography
  • Renal scintigraphy

Treatment and Medical Assistance

Main goal of the treatment: Reduce proteinuria and improve renal function
  • Administering medications to reduce proteinuria
  • Performing a renal biopsy to confirm diagnosis
  • Administering immunosuppressants to reduce inflammation
  • Providing supportive care to improve renal function
  • Monitoring for any adverse effects of treatment
  • Regularly monitoring the patient's proteinuria levels
  • Providing lifestyle advice to reduce the risk of further complications
