Abstract EN
Almost all forms of glomerular diseases have been reported in diabetics.
In a recent series, 12% of those with type I and 27% of those with type II diabetes were found to have non diabetic renal disease.
We studied 80 adult diabetic Iraqi patients who were diagnosed with glomerular disease on native kidney biopsies from January 2000 to April 2008.
Membranoproliferative GN was seen in 32 patients (40%), Focal and Segmental glomerulosclerosis in 16 patients (20%), Membranous nephropathy in 20 patients (25%), Minimal change disease in 8 patients (10%), Renal amyloidosis in 4 patients (5%).
In conclusion Membranoproliferative GN was the most common histological diagnosis in our diabetic patients undergoing renal biopsy.
