Risk calculators and risk factors for Membranous glomerulonephritis causes

Overview

  • The main causes of Membranous Glomerulonephritis are Infectious causes like Hepatitis B, drugs like captopril and autoimmune diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus.

Causes:

Life-threatening Causes[edit | edit source]

  • Life-threatening causes of membranous glomerulonephritis include hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV.
