[Three cases of oligomeganephronia].
Nihon Jinzo Gakkai Shi 1990 November
Three cases of bilateral renal hypoplasia with oligomeganephronia are reported. In all three patients urine abnormalities were pointed out by annual urine screening for school-children and they showed mild or moderate deterioration of renal function. One patient had repeated episodes of urinary tract infection, and bilateral vesico-ureteral reflux (grade III) was found by the voiding cystourethrography. Light microscopic findings of renal biopsy specimens were similar in three cases; significant hypertrophy of the glomerulus and tubulus; mild mesangial expansion, and interstitial changes. Further histological examination which was done in one case showed widespread foot process fusion, mesangial interposition and membrane-like structures by electron microscopy, and mesangial IgA deposition by immunofluorescence. Three was no alteration in immuno-staining pattern for basement membrane components, including type VI and V collagens, laminin and fibronectin, in the glomeruli.
