Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : other - what does this mean
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified: other is an inherited kidney disorder caused by genetic mutations that can lead to the development of kidney dysfunction. symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include proteinuria, hypertension, and renal failure. early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent the progression of the disease.
What happens during the disease - hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : other
