Abstract

The examination of the urine is the oldest and a very basic technique for every nephrologist. It helps to detect, diagnose and classify diseases of the kidneys and the urinary tract. Proteinuria is an important sign of kidney disease and an own factor in the pathophysiology of renal progression. Acanthocytes in the urine (> 5 %) have a high specifity (98 – 100 %) for diagnosing a glomerular hematuria.

Die Urinuntersuchung ist zwar die älteste Methode, um Erkrankungen der Nieren und der ableitenden Harnwege zu erkennen. Sie hat aber immer noch einen zentralen Stellenwert in der Diagnostik von Nierenerkrankungen [1] [2].
