Abstract:
Objective To analyze the correlation between clinical characteristics and pathological findings lupus nephritis (LN) in children,together with the correlation of the renal vascular lesion respectively with the glomerular lesion and tubulointerstitial lesion.Methods Forty-one cases of LN in children diagnosed by percutaneous renal biopsy from Jan.2008 to Sep.2012 in Pediatrics of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were collected.Clinical manifestations and the lab findings of the blood and urine of all the patients were analyzed,and all the frozen sections were evaluated according to the standard of ISN/RPS2003 for LN.The glomerular lesion and tubalointerstitial lesion separately were also evaluated,respectively.The wall thickening/outer diameter ratio,intima thickening/outer diameter ratio and medial thickening/outer diameter ratio of the arterioles were measured.Results The percentage of clinical manifestation with LN increased coupled with the degree of pathological damage.In the different stages of pathological damage,both the glomerular lesion and tubulointerstitial lesion were getting much more serious along with the progressiveness of pathological damage,and what's more,they had a positive correlation(r =0.959,P ＜ 0.05).The wall thickness/outer diameter ratio in all cases was greater than 0.5,in dicating the thickness of vessel wall.Conclusion Renal vascular lesion really existed and is characterized by the progressive loss of integrity of the intima and the medial thickening.
