As Renal Insufficiency has haunted many people, most patients with Renal Insufficiency would like to know something about the causes of Renal Insufficiency.When the glomerulus is severely damaged, the renal function extremely declines such as excretion, metabolism, and the regulation of water, electrolyte and acid-base balance, which result in the disorder of various systems in human body. It is the clinical syndrome for the above reasons. Renal Insufficiency can be classified into Acute Renal Insufficiency and Chronic Renal Insufficiency. When mild Renal Insufficiency develops into sever Renal Insufficiency, it shows the process from renal function decline to renal fibrosis and even sclerosis. The prognosis is bad and even imperils patients’ lives. The causes include the following:

MPGN (Membano-proliferativeglomerulonephritis).

2. renal damage caused by metabolic disorder, such as Diabetic Nephritis, Gouty Nephritis, Amyloidosis Nephropathy.

3.Vascular Nephropathy such as hypertension, renovascular hypertension, arteriosclerosis.

4. Genetic Nephropathy such as Polycystic Nephropathy and Alport Syndrome.

5.infectious Nephropathy such as Chronic Pyelonephritis and Nephrophthisis.

6. systemic disease such as Lupus Nephritis, renal damage of Vasculitis, Huppert’s disease.

7.toxic Nephropathy such as Analgesic Nephropathy, toxic nephropathy of heavy metals

8. Obstructive Nephropathy such as urethral obstruction, Reflux Nephropathy and Lithangiuria.
