Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis Images

focal segmental glomerulosclerosis: A: basement membrane (GBM) with normal endothelial lining (GEN). podocytes (P) with intact foot extensions. MC = mesangial cells; basement membrane of Bowman's capsule (BCBM) is covered with parietal epithelial cells (PECs). B: regression of podocyte feet; tuft adhesion (TA). C: broad tuft of fibers (TA). C: complete segmental sclerosis with collapse of glomerulus. taken from: Jefferson JA et al. (2014) Adv Chronic Kidney Dis 21:408-416.
