[Clinicopathologic correlation of lupus nephritis].
26 autopsies and 29 renal biopsies of lupus nephritis were done and examined with pathohistologic methods. They consisted of minor type 2 cases (3.6%), mesangioproliferative type 11 cases (20.0%), focal type 10 cases (18.2%), diffuse proliferative type 17 cases (30.9%), membranous type 13 cases (23.6%) and proliferosclerosing type 2 cases (3.6%). It was found that varied and atypical glomerular lesions, glomerular massive immune complex deposits and wire loop formation, fibrin necrosis, microthrombi formation, arteritis, interstitial inflammation and hematoxyphil bodies formation were common lesions for lupus nephritis. These lesions were indices of activity and progression of lupus nephritis.
