Overview

Tubulopathy is a term used to describe a disease affecting the renal tubules of the nephron.^[1]

Although it can refer to a process that is inflammatory or noninflammatory, because the term “tubulitis” exists for inflammatory conditions,^[2]^[3] “tubulopathy” sometimes carries a noninflammatory implication.
