What are the consequences of kidney atrophy?

1. Renal atrophy refers to a state of renal volume reduction and function decline caused by various reasons, such as congenital renal dysplasia, renal arteriovenous disease, Alport syndrome, chronic glomerulonephritis, urinary tract infection, etc.

2. Renal atrophy can lead to renal parenchyma fibrosis and renal blood supply dysfunction, resulting in renal volume reduction and function decline, and eventually develop to renal failure and even uremia. It is

recommended that patients with renal atrophy go to the hospital for detailed examination as soon as possible, and actively cooperate with doctors for targeted treatment, so as not to delay the disease and miss the best opportunity for treatment.
