ACUTE TUBULAR INJURY, SEE NOTE.

Two slides with sections of a wedge of frozen cortical tissue contain a total of about 124 glomeruli, of which none is globally sclerotic. Glomeruli appear generally unremarkable, some with intracapillary neutrophils. Crescents, necrosis and thrombi are not present. There is subcapsular interstitial inflammation and focally in areas of fibrosis. Tubular atrophy and fibrosis are minimal ~5%. Tubules are dilated and show occasional protein casts and red cells. Arteries and arterioles are unremarkable. Vasculitis and thrombi are not present.
