Figure 1 A representative hematoxylin & eosin-stained section reveals several tubules dilated with eosinophilic granulated cast focally surrounded by desquamated epithelial cells. Many of the surrounding tubules show nonspecific degenerative changes suggestive of acute tubular injury. Glomeruli and blood vessels are essentially unremarkable (original magnification ×25).

Figure 2 A representative section stained with specific antiserato myoglobin reveals tubular casts staining positive for myoglobin suggestive of acute myoglobinuric acute renal failure (original magnification ×25).
