ABSTRACT

The acute nephritic syndrome is one of the glomerular disease that is characterizes for: hematuria, oliguria and acute kidney failure with diminished in the glomerular filtration rate and sodium retention with expanded intravascular volume, edema and hypertension. There are many differential diagnosis of this syndrome but the prototype is the acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis. This pathology is secondary a skin or throat infection with B-hemolytic Streptococcus . Renal biopsy shows an acute glomerulonephritis with intracapillary proliferation with subepithelial immune deposits that form the characteristics humps.
