Nephrotic state

In the nephrotic state, serum lipid levels (cholesterol, triglycerides) are elevated for two reasons. Hypoalbuminemia stimulates generalized hepatic protein synthesis,
including synthesis of lipoproteins. In addition, lipid catabolism is diminished, as a result of reduced plasma levels of lipoprotein lipase,
related to increased urinary losses of this enzyme

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is a rare type of renal infection characterized by granulomatous inflammation with giant cells and foamy histiocytes.
It may present clinically as a renal mass or an acute or chronic infection. Renal calculi, obstruction, and infection with Proteus or E. coli contribute to the development of this lesion
which usually requires total or partial nephrectomy
