How to Treat Renal Failure Caused by IgA Nephritis (Berger’s Disease)

How to treat renal failure caused by IgA Nephritis? As we know, IgA nephritis is caused by the deposition of IgA immune complex in renal mesangial area, which will lead to damage to the kidney thus causing proteinuria, hematuria, occult blood, high creatinine and so on. With time passing by, renal failure comes into being and high blood pressure (hypertension), pain in back and anemia even appear. How to treat? In most countries, kinds of hormone and immunosuppressive agents are applied such as cellcept, prednisone, glucocorticoid, etc, which often leads to the relapse of IgA Nephritis (Berger’s Disease) for they did not treat it from root. Next, we will introduce immunotherapy in our Hospital, which is a combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine and mainly includes: Chinese Medicine, blood purification such as plasma exchange and stem cell therapy.
1. plasma exchange and Immunoadsorption.

Stem cells are collected from umbilical cord and so on in our Hospital, after collection, purification and culture, they can be transfused into body by vein, just like dripping. These stem cells have a homing ability, they can recognize the focal lesion in our body and go to repair it.
