Primer on the Pathologic Classification and Diagnosis of Kidney Disease
نویسنده
چکیده
This chapter begins with a very brief history of renal pathology, discusses the role of the renal biopsy in the care of patients with kidney disease, and presents basic concepts of pathologic evaluation of kidney diseases. The emphasis in this chapter is on the pathologic evaluation of native kidney lesions in real biopsy specimens, and thus is most relevant to the medical renal diseases covered in Chapters 5 through 28. Renal developmental defects and cystic diseases are covered in Chapter 4, renal transplant pathology in Chapter 29, and renal neoplasms in Chapter 30.
