The nephrology clinic of Centro Medico Santagostino provides diagnosis and therapy for kidney disease, whether a primary factor or having occurred secondary to inflammatory or degenerative systemic diseases.
The kidneys maintain the vital balance of the organism controlling hydration, saline balance, blood pressure and the endocrine system. Their dysfunction, often caused by chronic disease, may develop gradually and with few symptoms: only a careful evaluation of blood chemistry and urine tests can reveal the presence of kidney disease, and prompt treatment can prevent progression.
