Tonsillectomy and IgA Nephropathy

The idea here is that IgA Nephropathy commonly presents with so-called "synpharyngitic glomerulonephritis"--gross or microscopic hematuria, often with transient renal injury, which coincides with the onset of strep throat.

Tonsillectomy is suggested for patients with IgA Nephropathy, for it may decrease the number of episodes of pharyngitis, so as to reduce the damage on kidneys. Even though tonsicllectomy may reduce the risk to develop futher kidney damage, what matters is that it fails to deal with the exsisted damaged kidneys tissues and cannot cure the disease.

Kidneys work to filter the blood and are easily attacked by the deposition of the combination of bacteria and antibody. Over time, inflammaition will occur in the kidneys, causing kidney damages. This is how IgA Nephropath occurs.
