Disorders of the kidneys
developmental defects
infections
altered immune responses
neoplasms
dysgensis
failure of an organ to develop normally
agenesis
complete failure of organ to develop
hypoplasia
failure of an organ to reach normal size
potter syndrome
characteristic facial features of newsborns with renal agensis
cystic renal dysplasia
microscopic features, is due to renal parenchymal malfomation of the fetal kidney
obstructive uropathy
a condition in which the flow of urine is blocked, causing it to back up and injure one or both kidneys
autosomal-recessive polycystic disease
small elongated cysts that form in the collecting ducts and maintain contact with the nepron of orgin
autosomal-dominat polycystic kidney disease
adult kidney disease-formation of destructive fluid filled cysts in the kidney and other organs
cystic disease of the kidney
fliud filled sacs or segments of a dilated nepron
kidney stones
crystaline structures that form from components of the urine
magnesuim ammonium phosphate stones
struvite stones
urine acid stones
formed in acid urine with ph of approximately 5.5, gout
cyctinuria
inherited disorder of amino metabolism
uretoroscopic removal
passage of cath through urethra into bladder and ureter
percutaneous removal
insertion of needle through flank into collecting system than neproscopre is inserted
extracorporeal lithotripsy
acoustic shock waves fragment calcull onto sandlike particles and pass in urine
pyelonephritis
characterized by renal inflammation and fibrosi induced by recurrent or persistant or persistant renal infection
medullary cystic disease
an inherited condition in which cysts in the center of each kidney causes the kidney to gradually lose thier ability to work
azotemia
presence of nitrogenous waste int he blood
oligurea
low output in the urine
glomerulonephritis
disease that provoke a profilerative responce of the endotheial, mesangeal, or epithieal cells of the glomeruli
Acute proliferative glomerulonephritis
resent onset of hematuria and proteinuria, impairment of kidney function (atoxemia), and salt and water retention causing edema and hypertension
rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
progression of renal failure over days to weeks,in most case in context of nephritic presentation, typically associated with pathologicial finding of extensive glomerular cresent formation
nephrotic syndrome
kidneys are damaged causing them to have protienurea, hyperlipidemia, hypoabumineria, and lipiduria
membranous glomerulonephritis
caused by the thicking of part of the glomerular basement membrane
minimal change disease-lipid nephrosis
can lead to nephrotic syndrome
focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
scar tissue that forms in parts of the kidney call glomeruli
Iga nephropathy
antibodies called Iga build up in the kidney tissues. it also called bergers disease
acute tubular necrosis
damage to the tubule cells of the kidneys
chronic glomerulonephritis
advanced stage of a group of kidney disorders, resulting in inflammation and gradual, progression destruction of the glomeruli (internal kidney structures)
renal tubular acidosis
occurs when the kidneys fail to excrete acids into the urine
wilms tumor
kidney cancer that occurs in children
renal cell carcinoma
kidney cancer that starts in the lining of very small tubes (tubules) in the kidney
