    Author: Payne BJ, Saunders LZ.
    Journal: Vet Pathol; 1978 Aug; 15 Suppl 5():51-87. PubMed ID: 104422.
    Abstract:
    Heavy metal nephropathy is a pathologic entity of the renal tubular epithelium of rats, evoked by lead, gold, and other heavy metals. It is characterized acutely by coagulative necrosis, subacutely by cortical fibrosis, and chronically by cytomegaly and karyomegaly. Finally, adenomas develop, some of which become malignant.
