By Muhammad Mubarak.
Abstract
Case 1:Single glomerulus seen on on light microscopy.Normal glomerulus with surrounding parenchyma is unaffected.The tubules normal placed as back-to-back and a single normal arteriole is also seen.This biopsy can be labelled as a normal biopsy or a patient with Minimal Change Disease.(Jones' methenamine silver stain, ×400). Differential diagnosis of minor glomerular abnormalities on light microscopy (LM).• Minimal change disease (MCD)• Early-stage focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)• Lupus nephritis class I • Prespike membranous GN • IgA nephropathy • IgM nephropathy • Early-stage Amyloidosis Nephropathology
