[Thrombotic microangiopathy disclosing human immunodeficiency virus infection. Histological and ultrastructural study].
Thrombotic microangiopathy has recently been documented in association with human immunodeficiency virus infection. The authors present the clinical laboratory, histologic and electron microscopic kidney study features of one case of thrombotic microangiopathy revealing human immunodeficiency virus infection. They also review 28 previously reported cases of thrombotic microangiopathy associated with human immunodeficiency virus infection and discuss different pathogenic hypothesis which could be involved in genesis of human immunodeficiency virus-associated thrombotic microangiopathy.
