Features: This book aims to systematically introduce readers to the clinical key technologies for the diagnosis and treatment of tubulointerstitial kidney disease (tubulointerstitial nephropathy), thereby improving the diagnostic and treatment level of tubulointerstitial nephropathy. At the same time, the book comprehensively and timely reflects the theoretical and clinical research progress in the field of tubulointerstitial nephropathy in recent years both domestically and internationally, especially the new advances in pathogenesis and diagnostic and treatment techniques, and introduces various newly recognized types of tubulointerstitial nephropathy. The book is divided into two parts: General Principles and Specific Topics. The General Principles primarily discuss that tubulointerstitial nephropathy is a group of diseases distinct from other kidney diseases, with independent morphological and pathophysiological foundations, introducing the commonalities in pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and treatment methodologies among various types of tubulointerstitial nephropathy. The Specific Topics then separately describe the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of various types of tubulointerstitial nephropathy. This book is suitable for physicians from various disciplines to understand the progress of modern nephrology, particularly for clinical physicians and researchers specializing in kidney diseases. It should also serve as an important reference book for postgraduate and postgraduate trainees in the field of kidney diseases to comprehensively study and master the theoretical and clinical knowledge of nephrology.
