Renal Function Disorders Explained | Chapter 33 – Porth’s Pathophysiology (Tenth Edition)

This chapter details various disorders of renal function, encompassing infections, structural issues, and inflammatory diseases. Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are commonly caused by E. coli and present classically with urgency, frequency, burning, and cloudy urine. A common painful structural disorder is nephrolithiasis (kidney stones), characterized by severe, intermittent, cramping pain radiating from the flank to the groin, often accompanied by red blood cells in the urine. Inflammatory diseases of the glomerulus covered include focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, IgA nephropathy, and inflammatory processes associated with systemic autoimmune conditions like Lupus nephritis. The chapter also addresses renal neoplasms, including the pediatric cancer Wilm's tumor and adult renal cell carcinoma, discussing their genetic factors and prognosis. 📘 Read full blog summaries for every chapter: https://lastminutelecture.com 📘 Have a book recommendation?
