Pathology showing IgA nephropathy, Oxford score M1E1S0T0. a Optical microscopy (scale bar 100 µm). Mesangial and endocapillary proliferation. No constituted crescents were observed, but fibrin deposits were present in the Bowman space of most of the observed glomeruli. No evidence of renal scarring from previous kidney injury could be detected. b Immunofluorescence (scale bar 100 µm). Diffuse mesangial IgA and C3 deposits. Absence of other deposits. c Electron microscopy (scale bar 1 µm). Diffuse mesangial deposits
