Non-specific histopathological changes in kidney with renal tubular dysgenesis

Absence of proximal convoluted tubules (APCT) is a specific pathomorphological change found in kidney with renal tubular dysgenesis (RTD). Non-specific structural abnormalities in the kidney with this disorder have rarely been reported. The aim of this study was to detect non-specific histopathological changes (NSHC) in RTD kidney, to evaluate their incidence, and to establish a possible relationship to various etiological-pathogenic variants of RTD.
