title: [Fibrillary glomerulopathy].
abstract: The authors present an account on contemporary knowledge of the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of fibrillar glomerulopathies. The latter are characterized by extracellular localized microfibrils and microtubules resp. in the glomeruli of the kidneys, their diameter being 8-60 nm. They are divided into amyloid and non-amyloid types. The others are classified according to the immunofluorescent finding into immunoglobulin positive and negative ones. The differential diagnosis is important in particular in immunoglobulin positive ones as they are present in serious diseases such as cryoglobulinaemia, monoclonal gammapathy, systemic lupus erythematosus and immunotactoid glomerulopathy.
