  • Title: [Morpho-clinical variants of chronic glomerulonephritis and their significance for the evaluation of the severity of the disease].
    Author: Ratner MIa, Gel'fand IM, Varshavskiĭ VA, Rozenfel'd BI, Brodskiĭ MA.

    Abstract:
    The study of the morphological, clinical and functional manifestations of compensated chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN) in 317 patients revealed the advantage of the morphoclinical variants as compared to the morphological types for the evaluation of the gravity and prognosis of the disease. The morphoclinical variant means the combination of the morphological and clinical types. It was found that the morphoclinical variants of CGN determine the probability of the tubulointerstitial component, which deteriorates the prognosis of the disease more precisely than its morphological types. Renal dysfunction is more closely connected with the morphoclinal variant of CGN than with the morphological type. The data obtained are in favour of developing a morphoclinical classification of CGN on the basis of the morphoclinical variants of the disease.
