Excerpt

1.
The presence of tubular and glomerular proteinuria entails a poor prognosis from the renal standpoints.
 
2.
A renal biopsy can be complicated by profuse bleeding due to abnormal platelet function and morphology.
 
3.
This patient was treated with potassium citrate and enalapril for the metabolic acidosis and proteinuria, respectively.
