Young patient with acute kidney injury and the biopsy findings below. Recently saw othpthamology for eye redness, pain. Glucosuria is noted. Urine beta microglobulin is elevated. Differential diagnosis? #renalpath #nephrology #pathsky #nephsky

Such an outstanding thread demystifying "drink 8 glasses of water a day" recommendation! In my personal experience, whenever I tell people that the majority of people need to drink only when they are thirsty they look at me like I am coming from a different planet!

Makes me happy when the nephrologist nails the biopsy diagnosis in their provided clinical note. Older pt with progressive CKD with minimal proteinuria, unremarkable work up. Concerned for LECT2 amyloidosis. Just have H&E this morning; but looks like they nailed it. #renalpath #pathtsky #nephrology

CKD, proteinuria, Crohn's disease. KBx w/focally granulomatous tubulointerstitial nephritis and IgAN. Common findings in IBD patients (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38344742/). Pt on TNFa inhibitor (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36706240/) also reported IgAN/TIN associations. #renalpath #pathsky #nephrology.

For all new and old: REGISTER to our first ever, recurrent FSGS only, conference! Washington DC, December 9th. We just upsized the venue to accommodate more people! Unique participation of patients, scientists, public figures and more.
Social dinner the night before for all!
