Dense Deposit Disease
Dense deposit disease is a rare kidney disorder in which abnormal substances build up in the structures responsible for filtering the blood. This buildup interferes with the normal function of kidney filtration.
Common symptoms: It may present with protein or blood in the urine, swelling in the legs or face, and abnormalities detected in kidney function tests.
Why evaluate it? Because it affects kidney filtration, following it up allows the course to be monitored and the kidneys' function to be protected over time.
Who treats it? The nephrologist is responsible for studying this type of kidney condition, and the pediatric nephrologist steps in when it occurs in children. In the case of persistent swelling or changes in urine, a specialized assessment helps clarify the cause.
