Abstract
The AJKD Atlas of Renal Pathology presents a compilation of figures on a specific pathologic entity. You may download the figures to create your own personal, non-commercial library of images or to create slides for teaching purposes.

Fig 2The markedly expanded capillary loops filled with foam cells are evident in this case of LCAT deficiency. Other inherited defects in lipid metabolism may give rise to similar accumulation of lipid-related material.

Large foam cells filling up capillary lumens are evident in this case of LCAT deficiency. There are also expansion of the mesangial matrix and an irregular contour of the capillary wall with segmental areas of a bubbly appearance (upper left).

In this electron microscope image, numerous lipid inclusions are seen in the cytoplasm of the visceral epithelial cell.
