Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is characterized by a pattern of glomerular injury on light microscopy, including hypercellularity and thickening of the glomerular basement membrane. The clinical presentation usually consists of mixed nephritic and nephrotic features. Cause is idiopathic or secondary to another disorder. Diagnosis is by renal biopsy. Treatment is directed at the underlying disorder, when present. For patients with idiopathic disease, treatment may be supportive or include corticosteroids and other immunosuppressive agents..
