Glomerular deposition of Hageman factor in IgA nephropathy
Nephron
|January 1, 1984
Abstract:
Glomerular localization of Hageman factor and fibrin-related antigen (FRA) was examined in 31 cases of IgA nephropathy by immunofluorescent techniques. Hageman factor was observed in 21 cases (68%) and FRA in 24 cases (77%). It is suggested that blood coagulation occurs and fibrin is formed in the glomerulus of IgA nephropathy.
