Reticulo-tubular structures in endothelium of vascular ansa of kidney glomeruli in children.
In the presented cases, paramyxoviral-like reticulotubular structures were found in morphologically different forms of primary glomerular diseases in children. On the basis of the data obtained it seems likely that the diagnostic significance of these structures during the course of systemic lupus erythematosus and other collagen-related diseases must be carefully evaluated.
