In this lecture Professor Zach Murphy will be presenting on Nephrotic Syndrome. We will begin this lecture by explaining the normal anatomical functions of the glomerular filtration barrier. We will then define what Nephrotic Syndrome is and all of the effects that it can have on patients. We will also be discussing the causes of Nephrotic syndrome including minimal change disease, membranous nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy, and amyloid nephropathy. We conclude this lecture with the diagnostic approach to Nephrotic Syndrome and how we can treat the complications that are a result from this disease. We hope you enjoy this lecture!
