Figure 1 Renal biopsy findings. (a) A low-power view shows three tubules of probable distal or collecting tubular origin (arrows) containing abundant clear intraluminal crystals with needle and rod shapes surrounded by mononuclear cells and giant cells. The adjacent interstitium contains a dense infiltrate of mononuclear leukocytes (hematoxylin & eosin, original magnification × 200). (b) A high-power view illustrates the clear intratubular crystals (arrows) engulfed by intraluminal giant cells (arrowheads) (hematoxylin & eosin, original magnification × 400).
