Serbia Balkan nephropathy

The initial description of Balkan nephropathy emanated from Bulgaria [15,16] and Serbia [17-19]. By 1957, the disease was recognized in Bosnia and Croatia and by 1958 in Romania [20]. [Pg.845]

Topography of the terrain differs between endemic regions. All 14 endemic villages in Croatia are located in a single lowland municipality, at an altitude of about 100 m, while Bosnian foci are found up to 130 m. About 90% of all endemic settlements in Serbia are also situated at a low altitude, below 200 m [10], either in large plains, river valleys or, much more seldom, in hilly regions. There have been no studies of medical geography of Balkan nephropathy in Romania for the last 30-35 years and endemic localities are yet to be determined... [Pg.589]

Chronologically, lead poisoning was first offered as an explanation for the occurrence of Balkan nephropathy [17-19]. The idea on lead-contaminated flour led to abandonment of water mills in a part of Central Serbia. This energetic public health action had no impact on the disease frequency. [Pg.591]
