Abstract

This histomorphometrical study was performed on the kidney and the parathyroid glands of autopsy cases of chronic glomerulonephritis. The kidneys showed atrophy in varying degrees. Weight of the parathyroid glands increased because of proliferation of parenchyma. Weight of parathyroid parenchyma correlated negatively with weight of the kidney and volume density of tubules in renal cortex.
