Can Nephrotic Syndrome lead to Kidney Failure?

Nephrotic Syndrome includes a series of symptoms of kidney disease.And it often occurs in children.So we should learn more about this disease.And Can Nephrotic Syndrome lead to Kidney Failure? I think will become a most focus problem in kidney disease.So we should learn more about this article.

Nephrotic syndrome refers to a group of clinical symptoms, including large amount of proteinuria, edema, hypoalbuminemia and hyperlipidemia.
Nephrotic syndrome patients do have the possibility to lead to renal failure, but not every patient will definitely develop renal failure. The prognosis of each case should depend on the patient’s specific illness and physical conditions and many factors need to be taken into account such as the underlying cause of nephrotic syndrome, age, gender, level of proteinuria, blood pressure, response to the therapy.
Many disease and illness conditions can cause nephrotic syndrome. Nephrotic syndrome is usually classified into 4 types according to different pathogenic lesions. They are minimal change disease, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, mesangial proliferative glomerular nephritis.
Minimal change disease is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in children and it usually does not lead to chronic renal failure because children patients often have good response to steroids.
However other diseases such as FSGS will often progress into renal failure and loss of kidney functions because of its poor response to hormone therapy and high recurrent rate.
Besides, there are many causes of nephrotic syndrome. They are infections, diabetic kidney disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, amyloidosis, renal vein thrombosis, heart failure, etc.
The first step to prevent renal failure is to bring the underlying cause well under control so as to avoid further renal damages. Then effective treatments should be received to alleviate symptoms and complications such as high blood pressure and proteinuria which will in turn worsen renal damages if not treated properly or timely. Well control of blood pressure and reducing protein in urine can greatly slow its progression into renal failure.
Also there are some risk factors that can speed up the illness progression of nephrotic syndrome, therefore it is very important to learn them and have early prevention. They include certain medicines such as anti-inflammatory and anti-infection drugs; certain infections such as HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, malaria; certain illness conditions such as diabetes, lupus, amyloidosis, etc.

Learn More about Kidney Shrinkage

Kidney Shrinkage is a common kidney damage.But If one has one have one kidney work well,will not effect the normal life of kidney disease patients.

Kidney atrophy is a kidney condition, wherein the kidneys are shrinking in size. This happens because of the loss or inadequate circulation of nephrons. The renal veins and arteries start to shrink, as well, because of the loss of the function of the kidney.

Causes of Kidney Atrophy

Infections, like renal diseases or conditions and acute pyelonephritis, affects the functions of the nephrons that can lead to kidney atrophy. When the flow of blood to the kidneys continues to become low because of atherosclerosis, the tendency is the atrophic kidney. Other than infections and obstruction in the urinary tract, atrophic kidney can also be caused by reflux nephropathy and other kidney disorders.
Renal parenchyma, or the thinning of the kidney’s functional tissues, is also involved in kidney atrophy. This may happen because of the urinary tract obstruction that is the result of the increasing pressure to the tissues. Ischaemia can also cause the atrophic kidney. This condition occurs when there is a compression happening on the intra-renal arteries and veins.
