Absence or low individual and public risk
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : focal and segmental glomerular lesions - what does this mean
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with focal and segmental glomerular lesions is an inherited disorder caused by mutations in the genes that control the development of the kidneys. these mutations cause the glomeruli, the tiny filters of the kidney, to become inflamed and scarred, leading to reduced kidney function. this can eventually lead to kidney failure and the need for dialysis or a kidney transplant.
What happens during the disease - hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified : focal and segmental glomerular lesions
Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified, is a disorder characterized by focal and segmental glomerular lesions. it is caused by a genetic mutation in the genes responsible for the development and maintenance of the glomerulus, leading to a disruption in the normal filtration process. this disruption leads to the accumulation of waste products and toxins in the bloodstream, leading to a variety of symptoms, including proteinuria, hematuria, and hypertension. in some cases, the disorder can progress to end-stage renal failure.
