By anatomical location

• Vascular disease includes large-vessel disease such as bilateral kidney artery stenosis and small-vessel disease such as ischemic nephropathy, hemolytic-uremic syndrome, and vasculitis.
• Glomerular disease comprises a diverse group and is classified into:
  • Primary glomerular disease such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and IgA nephropathy (or nephritis)
  • Secondary glomerular disease such as diabetic nephropathy and lupus nephritis
• Tubulointerstitial disease includes drug- and toxin-induced chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis, and reflux nephropathy
• Obstructive nephropathy, as exemplified by bilateral kidney stones and benign prostatic hyperplasia of the prostate gland; rarely, pinworms infecting the kidney can cause obstructive nephropathy.
