Mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis

Glomerulonephritis is a kidney disease that is characterized by inflammation and damage to the glomerular structures in the kidneys. One type of glomerulonephritis is mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), which is characterized by proliferation of mesangial cells in the glomeruli of the kidney.

MPGN is a fairly rare disease, but its symptoms can be serious and even life-threatening. The main symptoms of MPGN are:

– Edema of the lower extremities
– High blood pressure
– Decreased urine volume
– Presence of blood in the urine

Treatment for MPGN can be lengthy and complex, but in some cases a kidney transplant may be required. However, with timely treatment and compliance with doctor's recommendations, MPGN can be controlled and improve the patient's quality of life.
