Overview
C4 glomerulopathy must be differentiated from other diseases that cause proteinuria, hematuria, and peripheral edema, such as IgA nephropathy, membranous nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulus /minimal change disease, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, and lupus nephritis.
Differential Diagnosis
On the basis of proteinuria, hematuria, C4 dense deposition, and edema, C4 glomerulopathy must be differentiated from IgA nephropathy, lupus nephritis, membranous nephropathy, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, focal Segmental Glomerulus /minimal change disease[1].
| Disease | History and Physical Examination | Diagnostic approach | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Proteinuria | Hematuria | Peripheral edema | Hypertension | Weight gain | C4 dense deposition in the glomerulus | Complement pathway | Gold standard test | |
