WCN25-1128 IgA DOMINANT INFECTION RELATED GLOMERULONEPHRITIS
IgA-dominant deposition infection-related glomerulonephritis (IgA-IRGN) is rare GN reported in 0.4% of renal biopsies and is increasingly recognised worldwide after first description in 1995. Middle-aged men are predominantly affected and commonly had diabetes mellitus and or cancer. Staphylococcus aureus infection has been described in more than 50% of IgA-IRGN cases. Acute kidney injury (AKI), haematuria, and various degree of proteinuria has been reported and kidney biopsy is diagnostic. The prognosis of IgA-IRGN and treatment protocol is not well established.
