[Histological examination of renal lesions associated with hepatic cirrhosis in young subjects].
Histopathological findings obtained by means of various methods in 8 cases of nephropathy, some in association with liver disease and some presenting as neonatal forms, are described. Extensive reference to the literature and to the pathogenetic hypotheses that have been advanced, particularly with respect to the possible action of autoimmunological factors, is followed by a comparative analysis of the presentt findings with those of other workers; the uniformity of the glomerular lesions observed in all cases seen at necropsy is made the basis for some suggestions concerning the genesis of renal lesions themselves.
