Teenager with nephrotic syndrome. Biopsy revealed unusual case of membranous nephropathy in a peds patient. PLA2R positive (IHC). PLA2R most common antigen in peds MN. EXT1/2 also common, SEMA3B less common. (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38025223/) #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky

Kidney txp biopsy for AKI (~6 post txp). Tubular injury associated with granular and ropey trichome positive casts. IHC confirmed myoglobin cast nephropathy. CK found to be very high; thought to be due to statin related myopathy. #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky

Lupus nephritis case with prominent podocyte cytoplasmic vacuolization on LM with myelin figures revealed by EM. Probably HCQ effect but given its prominence genetic etiologies should be excluded (e.g., Fabry, LMX1B). #renalpath #pathsky #nephsky
