Nephrotic Syndrome

Nefrotiskt syndrom

Svensk definition

Ett tillstånd kännetecknat av allvarlig proteinuri, mer än 3,5 g per dag hos en normal vuxen. En sådan ansenlig förlust av protein via urin leder till komplikationer som hypoproteinemi, allmänt ödem, hypertoni och hyperlipidemier. Sjukdomstillstånd förenade med njursyndrom ger vanligen upphov till kronisk njurfunktionssvikt.
