Nephritic syndrome associated to skin infection, hepatitis A, and pneumonia: a case report.

Introduction: Glomerulonephritis is the most common cause of acute and chronic renal disease. The prototype of acute glomerulonephritis is acute post-infectious glomerulonephritis. Recently, increased cases of glomerulopathy have been associated with bacterial, viral, and other infections. Acute nep...

        Introduction: Glomerulonephritis is the most common cause of acute and chronic renal disease. The prototype of acute glomerulonephritis is acute post-infectious glomerulonephritis. Recently, increased cases of glomerulopathy have been associated with bacterial, viral, and other infections. Acute nephritic syndrome is part of glomerulonephritis with an acute beginning, characterized by hematuria, hypertension, edema, and oliguria due to the reduction of glomerular filtration reflected in an increase of nitrogen compounds. Development: This paper shows a male infant at 2 years and 7 months of age with nephritic syndrome associated to a skin infection, pneumonia, and hepatitis A virus infection. Conclusion: Acute glomerulonephritis may be associated to streptococcus or another coincidental infection. Children with skin infection, hepatitis A, or pneumonia who reveal abnormal urinalysis, hypertension, azotemia, or oliguria should be evaluated for concomitant glomerulonephritis.
        Introducción: La glomerulonefritis es la causa más frecuente de enfermedad renal aguda y crónica. El prototipo de la glomerulonefritis aguda es la glomerulonefritis aguda post-infecciosa. Recientemente, se ha asociado un aumento en la cantidad de glomerulopatías con infecciones bacterianas, virales y otras. El síndrome nefrítico agudo hace parte de las glomerulonefritis de comienzo agudo, caracterizado por hematuria, hipertensión arterial, edema, oliguria y disminución de la filtración glomerular con la retención de productos azoados. Desarrollo: Se presenta un niño de 2 años y 7 meses de edad con síndrome nefrítico asociado con infección cutánea, neumonía e infección por virus de la hepatitis A. Conclusión: La glomerulonefritis aguda puede estar asociada con estreptococo solamente o con otra infección coincidental. Los niños con infección cutánea, hepatitis viral o neumonía, que hayan presentando anormalidades en el uro análisis, hipertensión, azohemia u oliguria, se deben evaluar para glomerulonefritis asociada.
