Focal proliferative nephritis is a type of glomerulonephritis seen in 20 to 35 of cases of SLE , classified as type III SLE.

Diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis is a type of glomerulonephritis that is the most serious form of renal lesions in SLE and is also the most common, occurring in 35 to 60 of patients. Most of the glomeruli show endothelial and mesangial cell growth proliferation affecting the entire glomerulus , leading to diffuse hypercellularity of the glomeruli , producing in some cases epithelial crescents that fill Bowman s space . When extensive, immune complexes create an overall thickening of the capillary wall , resembling rigid wire loops on routine light microscopy . Electron microscopy reveals electron dense subendothelial immune complexes between endothelium and basement membrane . Immune complexes can be visualized by staining with fluorescent antibodies directed against immunoglobulins or Complement system complement , resulting in a granular fluorescent staining pattern. In due course, glomerular injury gives rise to scarring glomerulosclerosis . Most of these patients have hematuria with moderate to severe proteinuria , hypertension , and renal insufficiency . ref name isbn0 8089 2366 8 cite book author Robbins, Stanley L.

It was first identified in the 1920s among several small, discrete communities along the Danube River and its major tributaries, in the modern countries of Croatia , Bosnia and Herzegovina , Serbia , Romania and Bulgaria . The first official publication was made by the Bulgarian nephrologist Dr.Yoto Tanchev and his team in 1956 in the Bulgarian Journal Savremenna Medizina ,9, 1956, a priority generally acknowledged by the international nephrological community. Their study was based on a wide screening of inhabitants of the villages around the town of Vratsa, Bulgaria. Their contribution to the study of this strange endemic disease of the kidneys consisted in the description of symptoms which were not typical for the common chronic nephritis, i.e. incidence only in adults no children affected , lack of high blood pressure, xanthochromia of palms and soles Tanchev s sign , early anemia of hypochromous type, lack of proteinuria and slowly progression of the kidney failure. Tanchev et al. suggested this condition to be a disease sui generis. Their hypothesis for the etiology was related to a possible intoxication with heavy metals, because the villages affected were supplied with water coming from the nearby karst type Vratsa Mountain. The first name of the disease was Vratsa nephritis . Later, an avalanche of research works and publications by Bulgarian and foreign scientists followed. Unfortunately, the etiology remains unknown till present. Dr. Yoto Tanchev died in the age of 83 in 2000. A striking feature of the disease is its very localized occurrence.
