Small caliber aortoiliac arteries in a patient undergoing renal transplantation for iga nephropathy

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a common form of primary glomerulonephritis. Most cases of IgAN are discovered incidentally by abnormal urinalysis (hematuria or proteinuria) and diagnosed by renal biopsy. Nearly 30%–50% of patients with IgAN progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) at a follow-up of 25...

Summary:IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a common form of primary glomerulonephritis. Most cases of IgAN are discovered incidentally by abnormal urinalysis (hematuria or proteinuria) and diagnosed by renal biopsy. Nearly 30%–50% of patients with IgAN progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) at a follow-up of 25 years. We report a case of small caliber iliac vessels in a patient undergoing renal transplant for ESRD secondary to IgAN.
