glomerulonephritis, membranoproliferative (medicine)


glomerulonephritis, membranoproliferative
Chronic glomerulonephritis characterised histologically by proliferation of mesangial cells, increase in the mesangial matrix, and a thickening of the glomerular capillary walls. The wall thickening is sometimes said to be a result of the interposition of mesangial cytoplasm or matrix between the basement membrane and the endothelium of the capillary wall. It is often divided into types I and II, and sometimes III. Pathogenesis is not well understood, but some types are thought to involve the immune system, with the complement system, in particular, being implicated.


Robert's pelvis (medicine)


Robert's pelvis


An obsolete term for a pelvis which is narrowed transversely in consequence of the almost entire absence of the alae of the sacrum.
