The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is rising in rural areas. Screening of high risk cases, early detection and referral by the physicians reduces the prevalence of kidney disease in the population. Hereditary disorders, Glomerular diseases, Obstructive nephropathies are common causes in CKD in rural areas. Kidney biopsy is an essential diagnostic tool in to diagnose glomerular diseases. This prospective study done at tertiary care teaching hospital between 2017 and 2020 to understand the profile of glomerular diseases in rural area. Forty patients were included in the Study. Primary glomerular disease (PGD) was present in 26 patients and Secondary glomerular disease (SGD) in 10 and primary tubulointerstitial pathology in 4 patients. The most common Secondary glomerular disease was lupus. Glomerular diseases are amenable to immunomodulatory therapy leading to change in clinical outcome of the disease. However, Kidney biopsy is underutilized particularly in elderly patients, hypertensive nephropathy patients, suspected non diabetic kidney disease and lupus patients.
Financial and social issues play dominant role in the treatment plan of chronic diseases in rural areas. Regional registry of kidney biopsy of urban and rural areas separately helps in paving a way of understanding the profile of glomerular diseases and its prevention.
