How useful is immunofluorescence in tropical renal pathology?
1Department of Pathology, Christian Medical College Hospital, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India.
Abstract:
A study of 841 renal biopsies from a south Indian hospital showed that immunofluorescence significantly helped in making a diagnosis in 74 cases. This contribution was most useful in biopsies from patients with nephritic or haematuric presentations; in those whose biopsies showed mesangial proliferative, focal proliferative, or crescentic glomerulonephritis; and in biopsies without changes detectable by light microscopy from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
