  • Title: [Kidney biopsies in diabetic patients--value of semi-thin layer study].
    Author: Ditscherlein G.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1989 Oct 01; 44(19):583-6. PubMed ID: 2588731.
    Abstract:
    Kidney biopsies of diabetics were divided into 2 groups: 113 biopsies with conventional paraffin sections (group I) were compared with 154 biopsy specimens with additional examination by semithin sections (group II). In group II glomerular lesions were observed in 81.3%, i.e. about twice as frequently as in group I or compared to the diagnoses made from the paraffin sections in group II, respectively. Most often additionally, diffuse glomerulosclerosis or glomerulonephritis were detected, partly also in combination.
