- membranous glomerulonephritis
membranous glomerulonephritis n a form of glomerulonephritis characterized by thickening of glomerular capillary basement membranes and nephrotic syndrome
* * *
glomerulonephritis characterized histologically by proteinaceous deposits on the glomerular basement membrane or by thickening of the membrane, with circulating antigen-antibody complexes indicating immune complex disease. It may be secondary to a number of other conditions, and clinical features are those of chronic glomerulonephritis. In some cases it may develop into the nephrotic syndrome. Called also membranous glomerulopathy or nephropathy.
