In medicine, IgA nephropathy, also called Berger's Disease, is a "chronic form of glomerulonephritis characterized by deposits of predominantly immunoglobulin A in the mesangial area (glomerular mesangium). Deposits of complement C3 and immunoglobulin G are also often found. Clinical features may progress from asymptomatic hematuria to end-stage kidney disease."[1]

Treatment

Treatment options include:

Treatments that have been studied but do not clearly help include:

  • Leflunomide and mycophenolate mofetil.[14][15]
