Light microscopic findings of kidney biopsy. a Kidney tissue showing focal interstitial inflammation and edema without evident storiform fibrosis. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining (magnification, × 100). b Interstitial infiltrating cells dominated by mononuclear cells, although infiltrating eosinophils and plasma cells are also observed. H&E staining (magnification, × 400). c Glomerulus showing mesangial proliferation, endocapillary hypercellularity, and subendothelial deposits. Periodic acid Schiff staining (magnification, × 400). d Double contours of glomerular capillaries are frequently observed. Periodic acid silver methenamine staining, (magnification, × 400)
