One of the most common kidney diseases is acute glomerulonephritis, an inflammatory process of autoimmune etiology that develops in the renal glomeruli and spreads to the entire renal parenchyma. This is a bilateral inflammation that simultaneously affects the kidneys. In the acute form, the disease proceeds quickly, with vivid symptoms. When passing into a chronic form, it can drag on for years and even decades, during which exacerbations alternate with periods of remission.
