Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Medullary Sponge Kidney

    a non-hereditary kidney disorder characterized by the abnormally dilated (ectasia) medullary and inner papillary portions of the collecting ducts. these collecting ducts usually contain cysts or diverticula filled with jelly-like material or small calculi (kidney stones) leading to infections or obstruction. it should be distinguished from congenital or hereditary polycystic kidney diseases.
  • Calciphylaxis

    condition of induced systemic hypersensitivity in which tissues respond to appropriate challenging agents with a sudden local calcification.
  • Nephrocalcinosis

    a condition characterized by calcification of the renal tissue itself. it is usually seen in distal renal tubular acidosis with calcium deposition in the distal kidney tubules and the surrounding interstitium. nephrocalcinosis causes renal insufficiency.
  • Calcinosis

    pathologic deposition of calcium salts in tissues.
  • Calcinosis Cutis

    pathological deposition of calcium in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. excessive calcification of the skin may be associated with underlying diseases that cause tissue damage (e.g., ehlers-danlos syndrome; pseudoxanthoma elasticum; rothmund-thomson syndrome; and werner syndrome) or that cause abnormal calcium and phosphate metabolism (e.g., calciphylaxis; chronic kidney failure; hyperparathyroidism; and sarcoidosis).
  • CREST Syndrome

    a mild form of limited scleroderma, a multi-system disorder. its features include symptoms of calcinosis; raynaud disease; esophageal motility disorders; sclerodactyly, and telangiectasis. when the defect in esophageal function is not prominent, it is known as crst syndrome.
  • Vascular Calcification

    deposition of calcium into the blood vessel structures. excessive calcification of the vessels is associated with atherosclerotic plaques formation particularly after myocardial infarction (see monckeberg medial calcific sclerosis) and chronic kidney diseases which in turn increase vascular stiffness.
  • Medullary Sponge Kidney

    a developmental disorder of the kidney characterized by cystic dilatation of the medullary collecting ducts, resulting in a spongy gross appearance of the kidney. it may be asymptomatic or complicated by hematuria, infections, or renal stones.
  • Calciphylaxis

    a rare syndrome characterized by vascular calcification and skin necrosis. it seen in patients with end stage renal disease.
  • Nephrocalcinosis

    deposition of calcium in the renal parenchyma, resulting from high levels of calcium in the blood and/or urine.

Patient Education


Calcium

You have more calcium in your body than any other mineral. Calcium has many important jobs. The body stores more than 99% of its calcium in the bones and teeth to help make and keep them strong. The rest is throughout the body in blood, muscle and the fluid between cells. Your body needs calcium to help muscles and blood vessels contract and expand, to secrete hormones and enzymes and to send messages through the nervous system.

It is important to get plenty of calcium in the foods you eat. Foods rich in calcium include:

  • Dairy products such as milk, cheese, and yogurt
  • Leafy, green vegetables
  • Fish with soft bones that you eat, such as canned sardines and salmon
  • Calcium-enriched foods such as breakfast cereals, fruit juices, soy and rice drinks, and tofu. Check the product labels.

The exact amount of calcium you need depends on your age and other factors. Growing children and teenagers need more calcium than young adults. Older women need plenty of calcium to prevent osteoporosis. People who do not eat enough high-calcium foods should take a calcium supplement.

Metabolic Disorders

Metabolism is the process your body uses to get or make energy from the food you eat. Food is made up of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Chemicals in your digestive system break the food parts down into sugars and acids, your body's fuel. Your body can use this fuel right away, or it can store the energy in your body tissues, such as your liver, muscles, and body fat.

A metabolic disorder occurs when abnormal chemical reactions in your body disrupt this process. When this happens, you might have too much of some substances or too little of other ones that you need to stay healthy. There are different groups of disorders. Some affect the breakdown of amino acids, carbohydrates, or lipids. Another group, mitochondrial diseases, affects the parts of the cells that produce the energy.

You can develop a metabolic disorder when some organs, such as your liver or pancreas, become diseased or do not function normally. Diabetes is an example.

Footnotes

[1] Chronic - a chronic condition code indicates a condition lasting 12 months or longer and its effect on the patient based on one or both of the following criteria:

  • The condition results in the need for ongoing intervention with medical products,treatment, services, and special equipment
  • The condition places limitations on self-care, independent living, and social interactions.
