A 16-year-old female presented with
severe intractable vomiting for 3 days
with poor response to anti-emetics.
She received IV PPI & anti-emetics in
the ER.
What is the next step?
Etiology of vomiting
GIT Non-GIT
S. CREATININE: 4 MG/DL. ACUTE SUPPORTIVE
MEASURES DONE.
HOW TO PROCEED TO
SEARCH FOR THE ETIOLOGY?
BP: 110/80.
No signs of
dehydration.
To assess for postrenal causes
Normal U/S
Urine analysis (The treasure)
RBCs 20 – 30/hpf
Protein ++
What is the cause of hematuria?
Etiology of
hematuria

•She gives history of these
lesions 3 weeks ago.
•What is the next step?
AFTER 2 MONTHS OF FOLLOW
UP, HER BP BECAME 110/80.
HER CREATININE BECAME 1
MG/DL.
Glomerulonephritis
•Immune mediated glomerular
injury with symmetrical
simultaneous involvement of
both kidneys at the same

• A 23-year-old woman presented with hematuria.
Her blood pressure was normal, and she had no
rash, joint pain, or other symptoms. Urinalysis
was positive for proteinuria and hematuria, and
urinary sediment analysis showed dysmorphic red
blood cells (RBCs) and red cell casts, leading to a
diagnosis of glomerulonephritis. She had
proteinuria of 1.2 g/24 hours. Laboratory tests for
systemic diseases were negative. Renal biopsy
study revealed stage III immunoglobulin A (IgA)
nephropathy.
Asymptomatic
Hematuria
Proteinuria
Nephritic syndrome
Nephrotic syndrome
Extracapillary proliferation (crescents): accumulations of macrophages, fibroblasts,
proliferating epithelial cells & fibrin within Bowman's space & represent rupture of
the glomerular membrane, signifying severe injury to glomerular capillary wall.

Editor's Notes

  1. On a pathological basis, glomerular lesions can be diffuse (all glomeruli are involved) or focal(only some glomeruli are involved [typically less than 50 percent]). At the level of the individualglomerulus, a process is global if the whole glomerular tuft is involved or segmental if only aportion is involved (less than 50 percent).
