we report a case of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (mpgn) with igmκ light chain deposits in a patient with chronic hepatitis c infection and simultaneous onset of monoclonal igmκ gammopathy with concurrent small b-cell lymphoproliferative disease. the patient presented with hepatosplenomegaly and a uremic state that necessitated dialysis without any clinical signs of systemic disease ...

Survival biopsies are frequently applied in rat kidney disease models, but several drawbacks such as surgical kidney trauma, bleeding risk and variable loss of kidney tissue are still unsolved. Therefore, we developed an easy-to-use core biopsy instrument and evaluated whether two consecutive kidney biopsies within the same kidney can be carried out in a standardized manner. On day 0, 18 Lewis ...
