Kidney biopsy. (a) Hematoxylin and eosin stain: a glomerulus with segmental sclerosis and mesangial expansion and hypercellularity. (b) Hematoxylin and eosin stain: interstitial nephritis with lymphocytes, plasma cells and a few eosinophils. (c) Hematoxylin and eosin stain: acute tubular injury. (d) Immunofluorescence: mesangial/paramesangial and capillary walls staining for IgG. Similar findings are seen with IgM and IgA. (e) Immunofluorescence: mesangial/paramesangial and capillary walls staining for C1q. Similar findings are seen with C3. (f) Electron microscopy: organized electron-dense deposits with fingerprint pattern.
