Arteriole with features of a old recanalized thombus in a transplant kidney biopsy. Multiple slit like vascular spaces within the fibrotic lumen. Not a lesion I see often. Pt had clinically diagnosed TMA a few months prior. #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky

Dr. Samuel W. French and Dr. Weibo Yu worked with Dr. Vatche G. Agopian to characterize the histopathologic spectrum of LR3/LR4 lesions identified on imaging for early liver cancer screening. They presented their prelim results at the 2nd Annual Comprehensive Liver Research Center Symposium.

NELL-1 IHC can also be tricky to interpret as there is significant podocyte cytoplasmic staining in the negative control. Must show granular capillary wall deposits which match deposits by IF and EM. #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky

One of the more subtle cases of amyloidosis I have seen. Few spicules on silver stain. Minimal congo red positivity. Despite early amyloid deposition, pt had nephrotic syndrome. Likely AL type (pt has LPL); MS pending. #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky

Bx for progressive CKD in a pt with CML, in remission. Limited biopsy with prominent debris filled proximal tubule lysosomes + for lysozyme (no evidence for light chain restriction (F/P) or chromogranin). Suspicious for lysozyme nephropathy. #renalpath #pathksy #nephsky

So many eosinophils in this case of tubulointerstitial nephritis secondary to recent antibiotic administration. Few tiny granulomas as well. Eos seen in EM as well. #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky

Unfortunate but not rare IgAN presentation. Pt in their 30's, no PMHx, presented with HTN emergency, CKD, hematuria, proteinuria. Advanced IgAN with severe IFTA, focal active crescents (M1 E1 S1 T2 C1). Wish we could catch these cases earlier. #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky
