Abstract:
The advent of up-to-date electron microscopes and molecular biological methods for the examination of renal puncture biopsies could define earlier undetectable and unworthy cellular structures and stromas. There is a diversity of diseases that can be diagnosed exclusively at the ultrastructural level, thus the literature has identified the concept of glomerular diseases with organized deposits. The current classifications based only on the ultrastructual deposits are imperfect as they fail to account for the etiological and pathogenetic features included in these diseases.
