A 16-year Survey of Clinicopathological Findings, Electron Microscopy, and Classification of Renal Amyloidosis [PDF]
Background: Electron microscopy (EM) is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of renal amyloidosis, particularly in the early stages of the disease. In Iran, studies on EM and the clinical features of renal amyloidosis are scarce. The objective of the present
