Nice example of pigmented nephropathy (likely myoglobin cast nephropathy) in an autopsy case (sepsis). I find this is a frequently overlooked finding in autopsy cases. Trichrome highlights the casts bright red. Can also do myoglobin stain to confirm. #renalpath #autopsypath

Not all glomerular disease is the same. Yet many kidney transplant trials still exclude these patients altogether. Fresh off the press! kireports.org/article/S2468-…

Reminder to review non-neoplastic tissue in tumor nephrectomies. #renalpath always takes a quick look here. Slightly tedious but can be very useful. RCC pt with amyloidosis. Amyloid A IHC positive (can be seen with RCC); mass spec pending. #nephrology #pathwitter #nephrology

Recently, misinformation about organ #donation surfaced. I’m an organ donor and proud caregiver to transplant recipients. More than 90,000 people are waiting for a kidney, and half will die before getting one. The shortage is real. Sign up to be an organ donor #DonationSavesLives
