Resumo: In a series of 36 cases of renal disease associated with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis the following morphologic types of glomerulonephritis were found: mesangio-capillary (33.2%), mesangial proliferative (25.0%), focal glomerular sclerosis (16.7%) and sclerosing glomerulonephritis (8.3%). No significant statistical differences were found when these results were compared with those from 36 cases of glomerulonephritis not associated with hepatosplenic disease. On the other hand, endocapillary glomerulonephritis was found to be predominant in the latter group of cases. These results did not substantiate the assumption that mesangio-capillary glomerulonephritis is specifically related to hepatosplenic schistosomiais. However, if the types of glomerulonephritis that predominantly involve the me-sangium are considered together, they are significantly associated with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis. Mesangial involvement is known to occur in other parasitic diseases and that may be related to a common immunopathogenesis.

Numa série de 36 casos de doença renal em portadores de esquistossomose hépato-esplê-nica, os tipos histológicos de glomerulonefrite encontrados foram os seguintes: mesângio-capilar (33,2%), proliferativa mensagial (25,0%), esclerose glomerular focal (16,7%) e glomeru-lonefrite esclerosante (8,3%). Quando estes tipos e números foram comparados com aqueles obtidos de um grupo controle de 36 casos de glomerulonefrite sem associação com a esquistossomose hépato-esplênica, não foram verificadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes, a não ser em relação à glomerulonefrite proliferativa endocapilar que apareceu muito mais frequentemente no grupo controle. Assim sendo, a idéia de que a glomerulonefrite mesângio-capilar está especificamente associada com a esquistossomose não se consubstanciou. Todavia, quando se consideram juntos os dois grupos de gomerulonefrite com envolvimento predominantemente mesangial (mesângio-capilar e proliferativa mensagial), há uma nítida predominância dos mesmos nos casos associados com a esquistossomose hépato-esplênica. Este dado pode estar ligado à existência de imuno-complexos de grande peso molecular, os quais tendem a se depositar no me-sângio, como parece ser o caso com as glome-rulonefrites associadas com infecções parasitárias em geral.
