Crohn’s Disease and Membranous Glomerulonephritis Case Report

Abstract

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are two different types of chronic noninfectious gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases, namely Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative colitis. Renal involvement exists among the extraintestinal involvements of IBD. IBD renal involvements are in the form of glomerulonephritis, tubulointerstitial nephritis, nephrolithiasis, and renal amyloidosis. In this article, a 79-year-old male patient who presented with nephrotic proteinuria was diagnosed with membranous glomerulonephritis by renal biopsy. In addition, this article aims to discuss the patient who was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease in intestinal biopsy taken with colonoscopy while also referring to relative literature.

Crohn Hastalığı ve Membranöz Glomerulonefrit Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

İnflamatuar barsak hastalıkları (IBD) Crohn hastalığı ve Ülseratif kolit olmak üzere birbirinden faklı olan iki tip kronik noninfeksiyöz gastrointestinal inflamatuar hastalıktır. IBH ekstraintestinal tutulumları arasında renal tutulum olmaktadır. IBH renal tutulumlar, glomerulonefrit, tübulointerstisyel nefrit, nefrolitiyazis ve renal amiloidozis şeklinde olmaktadır. Bu makalede nefrotik proteinüri ile başvuran 79 yaşında erkek hastada renal biyopsi ile membranöz glomerulonefrit tanısı kondu. Ayrıca yapılan kolonoskopi ile alınan barsak biyopsisinde Crohn hastalığı tanısı konan hastayı literatür eşliğinde tartışmayı amaçladık.
