Abstract EN
Hepatitis B and C are known to affect kidneys in a number of ways.
Glomerular diseases associated with hepatitis B and C include membranous nephropathy (MN), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, immunoglobulin A nephropathy, rarely amyloidosis, and fibrillary and immunotactoid glomerulopathy.
In a retrospective analysis of kidney biopsy of 534 patients, we found 16 (2.9%) patients of hepatitis B and 11 (2.05%) patients of hepatitis C with glomerular disease.
The most common form of glomerulonephritis in hepatitis B patient was MN and in hepatitis C patient was MPGN.
