Figure 1 Renal biopsy findings in acute phospho-nephropathy. (a) Coarse basophilic, rounded deposits of calcium phosphate are present within the lumina of tubules (hematoxylin–eosin, high-power field, original magnification × 40). (b) The widespread multifocal nature of the intratubular calcium–phosphate deposits is best illustrated with the von Kossa stain (von Kossa stain, high-power field, original magnification × 60). (c) Glomeruli displaying mesangial sclerosis with the formation of distinctive acellular nodules (periodic acid-Schiff stain, high-power field, original magnification × 40).

Figure 2 Acute phosphate nephropathy progression after OSPS exposure. Graph shows the trends of estimated glomerular filtration rate, serum calcium and phosphate, and total urine protein-to-creatinine ratio at baseline and up to 5 months after exposure to OSPS. The arrow marks the time when the patient was exposed to OSPS.
