Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis - what does this mean
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified is a condition in which the glomeruli, which are the filtering units of the kidneys, become damaged and inflamed. this leads to a condition known as diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis, in which the glomeruli become swollen and filled with immune cells, leading to a decrease in the ability of the kidneys to filter out waste products from the blood.
What happens during the disease - hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified: diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis is a type of kidney disease caused by an abnormal immune response to an inherited genetic mutation. this mutation causes the body's immune system to mistakenly attack the glomeruli, the tiny filters inside the kidneys, resulting in inflammation and damage to the glomeruli and eventually leading to kidney failure.
