title: [Disorders of purine metabolism as an etiological factor in renal pathology].
abstract: Of 3200 patients admitted to the nephrology department within several years, hyperuricemia was detected in 696. Excluding from this number persons with signs of chronic renal insufficiency (146 persons) and patients who were treated by diuretics (89), the frequency of hyperuricemia was 16.2% which exceeded almost 2-fold (9.2%) the value determined during the examination of 594 healthy persons. The authors discussed a possibility of early development of renal pathology in purine metabolic derangement with hyperuricosuric and hyperuricemic stages characterized by certain clinical peculiarities, including a possibility of development of immune complex nephritis.
