Abstract

Many studies have investigated preexistent renal disease during pregnancy. However, insufficient data regarding the new onset of glomerulonephritis in the course of gestation, especially in patients with preeclampsia, exist. The aim of this study was to investigate underlying renal disease in preeclamptic Turkish women with persistent proteinuria after delivery.
