What a terrific day @arkanalabs, nephro path capital of 🌎. Enjoyed presenting #LiquidKidneyBiopsy cases 2 savvy nephropaths, learned so much from their cases (c wow pic of cryoplugs!), all in an amazing environment of camaraderie and medical curiosity, and 5⭐️ host @renalpathdoc
SM-stained #UrinarySediment revealing an RBC cast. Clinic pt, low grade proteinuria, slowly progressing CKD, negative nephritic serology. Potential plan for kidney biopsy #UrineMicroscopy #LiquidKidneyBiopsy @OchsnerNephro
WBC cast, suspected GN #UrinarySediment #LiquidKidneyBiopsy
Same case, under dark field illumination. Acanthocyturia. #glomerular #nephritic #UrinarySediment #LiquidKidneyBiopsy @OchsnerNephro @LGlomcon
Renal tubular epithelial cell, acute tubular injury #UrinarySediment #LiquidKidneyBiopsy region #NephMadness
Vestiges of a red blood cell cast, dark field illumination, SM stain, case of IgA nephropathy. #UrinarySediment #LiquidKidneyBiopsy region #NephMadness
Pt w/SLE presents with sepsis, AKI, normal complements. #UrinarySediment shows mainly granular and waxy casts. And then, this RBC cast is spotted. Plan-altering finding #LiquidKidneyBiopsy @LGlomcon
And the biopsy showed cholemic tubulopathy. Note the bili-stained (Hall stain) renal tubular epi cell cast within the lumen of a flattened cell layer. Example of a #LiquidKidneyBiopsy Case of Dr Kanduri @SwethaKanduriMD
Last #UrinarySediment of the week: from a case of AKI, cholestasis, hepatitis A, SM-stained. Dark field and bright field microscopy showing coarse granular and renal tubular cell casts, ATN. @OchsnerNephro #PisseProphet #nephroart #liquidkidneybiopsy
Cellular casts containing #renal #tubular #epithelial cells and a few WBCs SM-stained (left) and unstained. #AKI due to #ischemic #ATN Plus toxic ATN 2/2 cisplatin #nephrotoxicity #urinarysediment #pisseprophet #spinyourownurine #liquidkidneybiopsy
Getting ready for weekend #ICU #renal #rounds with our fellow. This is my equipment. This is how we roll :) #pisseprophet #liquidkidneybiopsy #wetornotwet @OchsnerNephro
