Overview
TBMD is may developed or found incidentally in first decade of life in symptomatic patient, may present symptoms later in third decade in asymptomatic patient. If left untreated, adult TBMD patients with proteinuria may develop hypertension, renal impairment leading to renal insufficiency. Prognosis is usually good in patient with isolated hematuria in TBMD.
Natural history, complications and prognosis
Natural History
- The symptoms of TBMD are usually developed in first decade of life and start with symptoms such as recurrent hematuria. It occurs rarely after age 50 years.
- The symptoms of TBMD typically are not present initially, are found incidentally as microscopic hematuria, mild proteinuria in routine urine analysis and macroscopic hematuria rarely.[1]
- If left untreated, adult TBMD patients with proteinuria may develop hypertension, renal impairment leading to renal insufficiency. [2]
Complication
Common complications of TBMD include[2]:
- Hypertension.
- Proteinuria.
- Renal impairment.
- Renal failure.
- Anxiety.
Prognosis
- Prognosis is good in patient with isolated hematuria.
- The presence of proteinuria or other glomerulopathy is associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with TBMD.[3][4]
