Chronic glomerulonephritis is referred to as chronic glomerulonephritis, which refers to diffuse inflammation of glomeruli. A chronic renal disease characterized by degeneration of renal tubules and cell infiltration and connective tissue hyperplasia in the renal interstitium.

The etiology of chronic glomerulonephritis is the same as that of acute glomerulonephritis. However, the stimulation of the pathogen was mild and lasted for a long time. In addition, there are also acute glomerulonephritis that has not been completely controlled and converted to chronic nephritis.

[symptoms] the development of chronic glomerulonephritis is slow and the clinical manifestation is mild. It can be seen that the sick dog is gradually losing weight. In the initial stage, thirst increases, compensatory polyuria can reach 2 times, and in the later stage, there are edema, oliguria, uremia, systemic failure and other symptoms. The course of the disease is long, some dogs can have repeated attacks, progressive emaciation, anemia and other clinical symptoms.

[diagnosis] it can be diagnosed according to the course of disease, clinical symptoms and urine examination.

The urinary protein increased significantly during the attack of chronic glomerulonephritis and decreased in the later stage. A large number of transparent tubes can be seen in the urine sediment.

[treatment] it is difficult to cure chronic nephritis. The treatment is the same as that of acute glomerulonephritis.
