Abstract

The paper deals with the pathogenesis, clinical picture, and treatment of renal involvement in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It is noted that at the onset of the disease, there are signs of renal involvement in 25-50% of patients with SLE; they are further detectable in almost 60% of adults and in 80% of children. The types of renal lesion are described in SLE.
The pathogenesis of SLE as a whole is examined on a model of lupus nephritis. The morphological classification of lupus nephritis, the specific features of major nephrological syndromes, and the clinical types (active and inactive) are given. Treatment policy is stated to depend on the activity of the disease, the clinical and morphological type of lupus nephritis. Current immunosuppressive therapy can reduce the proportion of patients with terminal renal failure on the one hand and shows the prognostic value of renal involvement for the course of the disease as a whole, on the other.
New immunological involvement strategies are associated with total irradiation of the lymphoid system or marrow, followed by stem cell grafting.
