The prevalence of glomerular disease (GD) varies according to the different socio-demographic characteristics of each population. For the first time we present the prevalence of the different forms of GD among patients from several different areas of Columbia.MethodsData from 12,613 renal biopsies studied at our University Hospital between 2003 and 2015 was reviewed. Pathology results were classified according to a list of renal diseases proposed by various authors.ResultsFocal segmental glomerulosclerosis was present in 22%, IgA disease in 21%, Lupus nephritis in 17%, membranous glomerulonephritis in 13% and thin basal membrane disease in 9%.ConclusionsThis study confirms that focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and IgA disease are the most prevalent GDs found in Columbian patients. This is the first study to analyze GDs in a Columbian population and we recommend that a national registry system be created to collect comprehensive information from future research.
