[Glomerulonephritis (GN) in childhood. II. Epidemiology and clinical aspects of various histological forms of glomerulonephritis].
From 101 children with histological verified glomerulonephritis the following data were analyzed according to the morphological alterations: age distribution, symptoms and onset of the disease, previous diseases, and observation time. Differences of these parameters were found firstly between minimal glomerular changes and proliferative lesions. Within the various proliferative forms the differences were minimal. In children with a diffuse mesangio-proliferative glomerulonephritis and MPGN the characteristics of blood pressure, proteinuria and hematuria were observed during a follow-up time of 5 years. In conclusion, a distinction between single types of glomerulonephritis could be made exceptionally without examination of kidney function and morphology.
