Glomerulopathy
Specialty Urology  Edit this on Wikidata

Glomerulopathy is diseases that impact the glomeruli in the nephron, either inflammatory or noninflammatory. [1] Glomerulopathy includes collapsing glomerulopathy, glomerulocystic kidney disease, glomerulomegaly, membranous nephropathy, and tip lesion glomerulopathy. [2]

Collapsing glomerulopathy (CG) is a clinicopathologic entity that involves hypertrophy and hyperplasia of podocytes and segmentar or global collapse of the glomerulus. [3]

Glomerulocystic kidney disease is a rare form of renal cyst disease. Cortical microcysts, which are portrayed by cystic dilatation of Bowman's spaces, are its defining feature. [4]

Glomerulomegaly is defined by unusually large glomeruli. [5]

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is an uncommon autoimmune condition in which autoantibodies directed primarily against podocyte antigens target the glomerulus, causing electron-dense immune complexes to form, complement activation to occur, and severe proteinuria. [6]

The glomerular tip lesion (GTL) is a unique histopathologic lesion that appears in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome patients. [7]
