Clinical and pathological analysis of renal biopsies of elderly patients in Northeast China: a single-center study
2021
Overview
To identify the clinical characteristics, histopathological features, and prognosis of kidney disease in a large cohort of elderly patients from Northeast China.
We retrospectively analyzed the renal disease spectrum in 7,122 patients who underwent renal biopsies at the Second Hospital of Jilin University from 2006 to 2020. Patients were grouped according to age: below 60 years (non-elderly group, n = 5923) and at least 60 years (elderly group, n = 1199). The clinical and pathological characteristics of renal biopsy patients in the groups were analyzed using the t-test and chi-square test.
Compared with the non-elderly group, the elderly group had significantly fewer patients with primary glomerulonephritis, but more patients with tubulointerstitial disorders (p < .05). The incidence of IgA nephropathy, mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, and lupus nephritis was significantly lower in elderly patients than in non-elderly patients. The incidence of membranous nephropathy, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, hypertensive nephropathy, systemic vasculitis-associated renal damage, and amyloid nephropathy was significantly higher in elderly patients than in non-elderly patients (p < .05). The incidence of perinephric hematoma (≥4 cm

) in elderly patients with renal biopsy was lower than that in non-elderly patients. We noted that 79.9% of primary glomerulonephritis patients who received immunosuppressive therapy showed a remission rate of 83.5%.
The spectrum of kidney disease in the elderly is different from that in the younger population.
