Renal transplant. PVN in July => IS minimization. Currently AKI with anuria and biological TMA. Bx: diffuse glomerular TMA, g1 ptc1 v1 Any ideas what these interstitial dots are? Immune cells do not seem to bother about it; not the aspect of Russel bodies to me. #askrenalpath

Yes,It is ALECT-2 Amyloid in kidney, coexisting with diabetes in this pt. It is rarely found in India.If interstitial amyloid is scarce, its difficult to pick. Diabetic nodules are PAS positive,Amyloid is not. #RenalPath #AskRenal #AskrenalPath @RenalPathLabs #NephTwitter – at Gurgaon, India

If you treat type 1A rejection differently than 1B rejection, you do realize that this could be the difference of 1 lymphocyte for the tubulitis criterion, correct? #askrenalpath

#askrenalpath Biopsy showing renal amyloid. Both IgM and Lamba have 2+ fluorescence. Is this combined AL/AH amyloidosis? 🙏

Veri peculiar association on this biopsy. Crescentic GN with only few granular C3 deposits by IF AND a vascular-limited amyloidosis. Immunohistochemistry = SAA. Can't connect the crescent with the amyloid since no deposits in the glomeruli. #renalpath @AskRenalPath #askrenalpath
