Value of electron microscopy in the diagnosis of childhood nephrotic syndrome.

Rivera A, Magliato S, Meleg-Smith S.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Tulane University Health Sciences Center, New Orleans, Louisiana 70112-2699, USA. arivera@tulane.edu

The value of the ultrastructural study of the renal biopsy was investigated in a series of pediatric patients with nephrotic syndrome. Forty-eight cases of renal biopsies with clinical data were reviewed and divided into diagnostic groups. The contribution of electron microscopy to the final diagnosis was graded as essential-diagnosis could not be reached without it; supportive-it increased the level of confidence in the final diagnosis; and noncontributory. In this series of renal biopsies from 48 children with nephrotic syndrome resistant or nonresponsive to therapy, the most frequent diagnosis was minimal change disease, present in 42% of the patients. The contribution of the electron microscopic study to the final diagnosis was essential in 73% of the series, and was supportive in a further 27%. Therefore, it is concluded that the ultrastructural study was an essential component in the study of the renal biopsy in children with nephrotic syndrome, suggesting that electron microscopy needs to continue to be performed for all these patients.

Gibson IW, More IA. Glomerular pathology: recent advances. J Pathol 1998 Feb;184(2):123-9
University Department of Pathology, Western Infirmary, Glasgow, U.K.

The last decade has seen significant advances in the fields of cellular and molecular biology and pathology. These have contributed to our understanding of the mechanisms of glomerular disease and indicate possible novel approaches to therapy. This review discusses recent insights into the pathogenesis of glomerular disease, with consideration of the roles of intrinsic glomerular cells, infiltrating inflammatory cells, circulating permeability factors, and antibodies, and recent advances in the molecular pathology of the glomerular basement membrane. Changes in the perception of some well-established glomerular entities such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis are considered. In addition, a number of newly-recognized specific glomerulopathies including collapsing glomerulopathy, fibrillary and immunotactoid glomerulopathy, fibronectin glomerulopathy, and collagenofibrotic glomerulopathy are briefly reviewed.
