ABSTRACT
A retrospective study of the admissions of cases of acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis to the main hospital serving North Trinidad over a five-year period was made. Follow-up examination suggests that there is an initially good prognosis for those afflicted in early childhood whilst adolescents manifest effects of permanent renal damage at a much earlier stage after the acute attack.
