Light microscopy. (a) Shrunken glomerular tuft with dilated urinary space (arrows), (b) glomerular segmental sclerosis (arrows) with interstitial fibrosis, tubular degenerative/regenerative changes, and (c) tubular cystic dilatation (arrows) (H&E stain: (a) ×10, (b) ×10, and (c) ×20). Electron microscopy. (d) Several protein droplets in visceral Bowman’s epithelium (arrows), (e) mesangial sclerosis with increased mesangial cellularity (arrows), and (f) dilated urinary space and tubuloreticular inclusions in tuft endothelium (arrow). No disruption or electron dense deposits in GBM (EM: (d) ×1900, (e) ×1900, and (f) ×30000).
