RN represents a significant cause of chronic renal failure. Once established, the entity seems to follow a progressive course, regardless of therapeutic modalities. The association of glomerular lesions and hypertension may exacerbate the deterioration of renal function. Since, in humans, RN is almost always associated with urinary tract infections, treatment and prevention of infections is of paramount importance.
