Nephrotic syndrome
Associated with glomerulonephritis and with an
immune response that is noninflammatory.
Lesions that involve all or most (> 50%) of the
Glomerular Injury: Diffuse glomeruli (plural) are termed diffuse, and lesions that
and Focal involve some (< 50%) of the glomeruli are termed
focal (e.g., focal segmental glomerulonephritis).
When a whole glomerulus (singular) is affected, the
Glomerular injury: Global lesion is termed global, and the lesion is considered
and Segmental segmental if only a portion (< 50%) of the glomerulus
is affected.
An inflammatory disorder of the glomeruli, and most
Glomerulonephritis forms occur as a result of activation of immune
mechanisms.
