Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fibrin-rich thrombi in the microcirculation are a hallmark of hemolytic-uremic syndrome, a disorder characterized by hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury.

Answer: B 
 Henoch-Schönlein purpura is a systemic vasculitis that can affect the kidneys, causing glomerulonephritis and deposition of immune complexes.

Answer: C 
 Renal dysplasia is a developmental disorder where the kidneys are abnormal and do not function properly. It can result in decreased renal function and high blood pressure.

Answer: D 
 Ureteropelvic junction obstruction occurs when there is a blockage at the junction of the ureter and the renal pelvis, leading to impaired urine flow and potential kidney damage.

Answer: E 
 Polycystic kidney disease is a genetic disorder characterized by the growth of multiple cysts in the kidneys, leading to decreased renal function and potential kidney failure. It is not associated with fibrin-rich thrombi in the microcirculation.
