@grace_choung Taxonomy before ontology, a time-honoured tradition. I haven’t seen convincing evidence that “PIG” is a separate entity from membranous GN.

@SaynaNorouzi Sorry to miss the poster in person. Given the prior steroid exposure, I wouldn’t call this true “monotherapy”. This case would support initial steroids to suppress inflammation in the setting of very “active” disease, followed by anti-B cell therapy for long term management.

@JZRenalPath@sam_albadri@Renalpathsoc The Banff scores are diagnosis-agnostic. I think the A/C indices (at least initially) should just apply to rejection… in the Banff post meeting survey, only 66% said that we should consider reporting these indices on all cases.
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! https://t.co/varuZfFweh
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
