Fig 1 (A) Light microscopic findings of mild mesangial expansion and hypercellularity; no overt inflammatory changes are seen and crescents are not present in glomeruli (periodic acid–Schiff; original magnification ×200). (B) Ultrastructurally, there are fine granular electron-dense deposits without organized substructures seen intermixed with randomly dispersed fibrillary deposits (uranyl acetate and lead citrate; original magnification ×20,000). (C) Electron-dense deposits are intermixed with fibrillary deposits; some electron-dense deposits show curvilinear fingerprint-like substructural organization (inset) (uranyl acetate and lead citrate; original magnification ×10,000; inset, ×20,000).
