Evolución de la tasa de filtración glomerular y proteinuria a largo plazo en niños monorrenos en un hospital nacional

Objectives:To determine the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and 24-hour proteinuria among single kidney patients with a minimum 5-year follow-up period. Methods: The medical charts of patients attended at Hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati Martins (HNERM) from 2005-2016 were review. Information on 50 patients in whom data on GFR and 24-hour proteinuria was analyzed. Results: Median GFR was 109.74 ml/min/1.73m2 (RIQ 86.1-138.75); 22 patients were in the chronic renal disease stage classification I, 2 in chronic renal disease stage classification II and 5 in stage III; 26 patients (52%) had persistent and significant proteinuria, none of these had proteinuria in the nephrotic range. Conclusions: Single kidney patients present long-term complications such as hyperfiltration and reduction of the GFR.
