The natural history of Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is characterised by severity of clinical features which autonomously fluctuate, with very few cases of complete remission. Acute presentation and a slower reduction in renal function have seen more in children than adults. ESRD have been occurred among approximately 40% of patients within 10 years of diagnosis. Features suggestive of an adverse outcome include the nephrotic syndrome, renal dysfunction at onset, and persistent hypertension. Type II MPGN is associated with a worse prognosis, as is the presence of chronic interstitial damage on renal biopsy. In 20 - 30% of type I and 80 - 90 % type II MPGN, Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis may recur. | The natural history of Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is characterised by severity of clinical features which autonomously fluctuate, with very few cases of complete [[remission]].

Overview
Natural history
The natural history of Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is characterised by severity of clinical features which autonomously fluctuate, with very few cases of complete remission. Acute presentation and a slower reduction in renal function have seen more in children than adults. ESRD have been occurred among approximately 40% of patients within 10 years of diagnosis. Features suggestive of an adverse outcome include the nephrotic syndrome, renal dysfunction at onset, and persistent hypertension. Type II MPGN is associated with a worse prognosis, as is the presence of chronic interstitial damage on renal biopsy. In 20 - 30% of type I and 80 - 90 % type II MPGN, Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis may recur.
Complication
the most common complications in patients who have MPGN are included:
- End-stage renal disease (ESRD)
- Edema
- Periorbital
- Dependent edema
- Hypertension
- Infection with encapsulated bacteria
- Haemophilus species
- Streptococcus species
- Klebsiella species
- Thromboembolism events
- There are several predisposing factor that can increase thromboembolism tendency, these factors are:
- Decrease in anticoagulant factors such as, proteins C and S and antithrombin III
- Increased platelet aggregability
- Increase procoagulants proteins
- Hyperlipidemia
- Impaired fibrinolysis
- There are several predisposing factor that can increase thromboembolism tendency, these factors are:
- Hyperlipidemia
- Malnutrition
- Anemia due to iron deficiency
- Hypocalcemia due to hyperparathyroidism secondary to vitamin D deficiency
Prognosis
Factors that worsen the prognosis of MPGN are:[1]
- Hypertension at presentation
- Elderly individuals
- Low GFR at 1st year of presentation
Patients with MPGN type 1 and nephrotic syndrome have 50% vulnerability to develop end-stage renal disease (ESRD) within 10 years and 90% in 20 years. Type II MPGN is some how more aggressive and 50% of patients eventuate in ESRD after 10 years of diagnosis.[2][3]
