[Albuminuric neuroretinopathy in chronic primary glomerulonephritis].

The case of a 23-year-old young patient, which had an impure nephrotic syndrome and chronic glomerulonephritis, is presented. The evolution was to arterial hypertension, azotemia and albuminuria. The symptomatology was dominated by the ocular signs of AHT and albuminuric neuroretinopathy. The physiopathological mechanisms were of immunological type, starting an inflammatory chronic process at the level of renal glomeruli, together with the diminishing of the glomerular filtration and the appearance of a hypertension in the arterial sector, including the ocular area. The exact diagnosis was the result of a good cooperation between the physician and the ophthalmologist.
