Abstract
Abstract The developments in the field of kidney pathology are major objectives for nephrology worldwide, since the histopathologic diagnosis is a cornerstone for all glomerulopathies (either primary or secondary related to systemic diseases-for tubulointerstitial and vascular lesions as well as renal allograft nephropathy). Moreover, the correct interpretation of kidney tissue samples is a challenge for pathologists too. Consequently, a new subspecialty - nephropathology, was accepted by many medical schools in various universities, while dedicated scientific meetings, journals and websites were also created. In the following few pages, a short overview on the history, classic and novel meanings of the renal pathology for the understanding of glomerular pathophysiology will be discussed.
