title: Renal biopsy pathology in Auckland, 1969-1976.
abstract: The pathology of 1058 samples of kidney tissue studied during the past seven years as part of the renal biopsy service in Auckland is reviewed. About half of the samples were examples of glomerulonephritis, with diffuse proliferative and exudative glomerulonephritis being the most common finding. In the group of focal glomerular disease, lupus nephropathy and Goodpasture's Syndrome were frequently diagnosed.
