Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis - what does this mean
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified is a type of diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis, which is caused by an inherited genetic mutation that affects the renal glomerular capillaries, leading to inflammation and scarring of the kidney tissue. this results in an increased risk of kidney failure and other complications.
What happens during the disease - hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified, is a condition in which the glomeruli of the kidneys become inflamed and scarred. this is caused by an abnormal immune response to the mesangial cells of the glomerular basement membrane, leading to the formation of immune complexes and the activation of inflammatory cells. this causes diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis, which can lead to decreased kidney function and eventually kidney failure.
