Another biopsy showing fibroconnective tissue and blood. Identifying adequacy with a smartphone is a simple and helpful practice at the time of performing kidney biopsy.

I’ve recently found someone spoofing my Instagram account. Not seeing it on Twitter, but if you get anything from an account using my images but doesn’t sound like me please report it.

A case where the history changes everything. Initially I knew that this young adult had presented with malignant hypertension. On talking to nephrologist, I found out that serologies were suggesting scleroderma. Great case of TMA with classic EM. #kidneypath #renalpath
