His creatinine level is about 453, and he also suffer from high blood pressure and proteinuira as well as a shrunk atrophic kidney (8.2cm). For this condition, is there any treatment can be applied?

The analysis of illness condition.

Serum creatinine level 453 is much higher than the normal range which means there are a large amount of toxins and wastes depositing in your internal body, and the kidney has shrunk and kidney function decreased. To be frank, the kidney disease has progressed into the end stage real disease (ESRD). In this condition, patients are more likely to experience serious symptoms, such as severe proteinuria, hypertension, itchy skin, cardiovascular disease and so on.

What are the results of IgA nephropathy with kidney atrophy if left untreated?

IgA is a kind of primary glomerular nephritis characterized by deposition of IgA or IgA antibodies in glomerular mesangial areas. They deposit on the glomerular mesangial areas, causing inflammatory reaction, so the glomerular messangial cells got injured, blood and protein leak out into the urine. Gradually, the inflammatory reaction will cause renal fibrosis(creatinine level will increase and kidney function will be damaged at this stage), then leading to glomerular sclerosis(this stage is irreversible), then the whole kidneys lost function. In addition, the atrophic kidney will also fail to function well and it also can aggravate illness condition.
