Overview
Laboratory findings in HIV-associated nephropathy include: high-grade proteinuria, elevated serum creatinine levels, hypoalbuniemia, hyperlipidemia, CD4 counts below 200 cells/mm3, hyaline casts, leukocytes, oval fat bodies, and microhematuria.
Laboratory Findings
Renal Biopsy
Renal biopsy is the standard in establishing a diagnosis of HIV-associated nephropathy.Renal biopsy reveals focal segmental glomerulonephritis, significant tubulointerstitial injury and microcystic tubular dilation are characteristically seen. [1]
Renal biopsy is an essential tool for evaluation and identification of HIV-associated and other kidney diseases in HIV-positive patients, which is important in the management and treatment of the patients.[2]
Other Laboratory Findings
HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) can not be diagnosed clinically or with noninvasive measures such as laboratory findings or ultrasound.[3][4][5]
Laboratory findings in HIV-associated nephropathy include:
- High-grade proteinuria
- Elevated serum creatinine levels,
- Hypoalbuniemia
- Hyperlipidemia
- CD4 counts below 200 cells/mm3
- Hyaline casts
- Leukocytes
- Oval fat bodies
- Microhematuria
Routine laboratory tests that may be ordered to help in identify HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) are:
Blood Work-up
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Serum creatinine
- Lipid profile
- Albumin
- ELISA
- Dot blot
- Latex agglutination test
Supplemental Test
- Western blot
- Immunofluorescence
Urinalysis
- Proteinuria
- Microhematuria
- Leukocytes
- Oval fat bodies
- Hyaline casts
