Overview
If left untreated, C4 glomerulopathy may progress to develop renal failure.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
The symptoms of C4 glomerulopathy usually develop during or after the second decade of life and start with symptoms such as proteinuria, hematuria, edema, renal insufficiency hypocomplementemia, and hypertension.
Complications
Common complications of C4 glomerulopathy include[1]:
- Renal failure
Prognosis
Depending on the extent of the disease at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor.
