Patients diagnosed to have IgA nephropathy included in study. The biopsy specimen examined for IF and histopathology. Patients were followed up for 6 to 15 month for outcome. Results Maximum number of patients between 11 to 30years (28 %). Male to female ratio is 2.11. Episodic hematuria (52 %), edema (80 %), and proteinuria (60 %) are common presenting complains. Biopsy shows MPGN (38 %) and Cresentric GN (24 %) commonly. Hypertension is the most common complication (80 %). Patients with cresentric glomerulonephritis deteriorated (24 %). Conclusion IgA is commonest primary glomerulonephritis. We can diagnose patients early by screening patients with hematuria and proteinuria.
