Question

match the kidney disorder with its correct description.
condition only diagnosed in children
malignant condition of the kidney, develops in the cells of the renal tubules
can develop as a result of strep throat infection
benign and usually asymptomatic
condition that causes leakage of proteins into the urine, edema of the ankles and legs is a common sign
renal adenoma nephroblastoma nephrotic syndrome renal cell carcinoma acute glomerulonephritis

Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we analyze each kidney disorder and its description:

1. Condition only diagnosed in children: Nephroblastoma (also called Wilms' tumor) is a kidney cancer that primarily affects children.
2. Malignant condition of the kidney, develops in the cells of the renal tubules: Renal cell carcinoma is a malignant kidney tumor, often originating from renal tubule cells.
3. Can develop as a result of strep throat infection: Acute glomerulonephritis can be triggered by a streptococcal (strep throat) infection, leading to inflammation of the glomeruli.
4. Benign and usually asymptomatic: Renal adenoma is a benign (non - cancerous) tumor of the kidney and is often asymptomatic.
5. Condition that causes leakage of proteins into the urine, edema of the ankles and legs is a common sign: Nephrotic syndrome is characterized by proteinuria (protein in urine) and edema (swelling), including in the ankles and legs.

Final Matches:

• condition only diagnosed in children → nephroblastoma
• malignant condition of the kidney, develops in the cells of the renal tubules → renal cell carcinoma
• can develop as a result of strep throat infection → acute glomerulonephritis
• benign and usually asymptomatic → renal adenoma
• condition that causes leakage of proteins into the urine, edema of the ankles and legs is a common sign → nephrotic syndrome
