Abnormal renal glomerulus morphology

Synonyms

Abnormality of renal glomerulus morphology

Morphologic abnormality of the renal glomerulus

Definitions

Each human kidney contains approximately one million nephrons. The glomerulus is the most proximal component of the nephron. The glomerulus of the mammalian kidney is a highly developed vascular bed that acts as a filter, allowing a filtrate of small molecules, such as water, sugars, electrolytes and small proteins, to pass through a barrier that retains high molecular weight proteins and cells in the circulation. A structural anomaly of the glomerulus.
