Tree Number(s): C12.050.351.968.419.570.363.625; C12.200.777.419.570.363.625; C12.950.419.570.363.625; C20.111.535
Unique ID: D015433
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D015433
Annotation: do not confuse with GLOMERULONEPHRITIS, MEMBRANOPROLIFERATIVE; do not make diagnoses: use the term used by the author
Scope Note: A type of glomerulonephritis that is characterized by the accumulation of immune deposits (COMPLEMENT MEMBRANE ATTACK COMPLEX) on the outer aspect of the GLOMERULAR BASEMENT MEMBRANE. It progresses from subepithelial dense deposits, to basement membrane reaction and eventual thickening of the basement membrane.
Entry Term(s): Extramembranous Glomerulopathy; Heymann Nephritis; Idiopathic Membranous Glomerulonephritis; Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy; Membranous Glomerulonephropathy; Membranous Glomerulopathy; Membranous Nephropathy; Nephropathy, Membranous
