Which of the following types of glomerulonephritis is least likely to cause CRF:: (A) Post streptococcal glomerulonephritis, (B) Membranous GN, (C) Membrano proliferative GN, (D) Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
Answer is A. Answer is A (Post streptococcal GN): Acute post streptococcal GN is a cause of acute Renal failure and not Chronic Renal Failure. The other types of GN listed in the question are causes of CRF. In Post Streptococcal Gn (Acute GN): 95% of the affected children recover. The remaining of who do not recover, develop a Rapidly Progressive form of Glomerulonephritis and land up in ACUTE RENAL FAILURE.
