The hazards of membranous nephropathy are mainly infection, thromboembolism, malnutrition and renal failure.
Membranous nephropathy is the main cause of adult nephrotic syndrome, which is mainly manifested by massive proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, hyperlipidemia and edema, and the hazards are mainly infection, thromboembolism, malnutrition and so on.
1. Infection: Hypoproteinemia leads to decreased immunity, severe edema, etc. In addition, patients need to apply immunosuppressive drugs, the risk of infection is greatly increased.
2. Thrombosis: Thrombosis is one of the most common complications of membranous nephropathy, which is manifested as venous thrombosis of the lower limbs.
3. Malnutrition: a large amount of protein is excreted with urine, which can lead to protein malnutrition and so on.
4. Renal failure: renal failure is manifested by elevated blood creatinine, urea nitrogen and uric acid.
Patients with membranous nephropathy should go to the hospital in time and be treated under the guidance of professional physicians.
