Abstract:
Objective Idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN)is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults,and the prognosis of IMN varies among individuals. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognosis and risk factors,especially the prognostic indicators in kidney patholo?gies for IMN. Methods Patients diagnosed as IMN by renal biopsy from January 2006 to December 2011 were collected and those who finished at least 12 months of follow?up were enrolled in this study. The clinical and renal pathological indicators were collected and the correlation between the pathological indicators and the prognosis was analyzed. Results Totally 137 patients were enrolled in this study,18 patients(13.14%)reached the follow up ending point(defined as eGFR<30 mL/min). The prognosis of kidney function was poor in IMN patients with interstitial fibrosis,tubular atrophy and severe vascular sclerosis and those who were older at disease onset and demonstrated to have higher MAP,poorer renal function,intersti?tial fibrosis,tubular atrophy and worse vascular sclerosis. Conclusion Renal pathological characteristics during renal biopsy were correlated with the renal prognosis of IMN. Severe interstitial fibrosis,tubular atrophy and vascular sclerosis were identified as risk factors for the poor prognosis of re?nal function in IMN patients.
