1 PLATE HGIC. TERMINAL MEDULLARY PORTION OF PROXIMAL CONVOLUTION LYING IN THE ZONE OF HEMORRHAGE The entire extent of the tubule is almost continuously necrotic. 180

COLLECTING TUBULES OF THE SAME CASE LYING IN THE ZONE OF HEMORRHAGE IN THE OUTER STRIPE OF THE OUTER ZONE OF THE MEDULLA All show extensive segments of complete tubular necrosis which, with their black stained content of coagulated debris, produces a marked irregularity in tubular outline. At left, the luminal content is a solid cast, to the right, scattered debris and desquamated cells are visible. Original magnification of 100 X is here reduced to 40 and 20 X. 186

9 PLATE VI (A TO B) Orientation of plates shown in outline tracing. From the same case; the formation of the peripheral collecting system by the junction of the connecting tubules of 4 nephrons; 4 others have been removed, leaving only their connecting tubules attached. VIA. Three distal convolutions (d) filled with coagulum, which stains dense black and so obscures the tubule wall, are moderately dilated. The connecting tubules (c) are clear of obstruction, but the central collecting tubule is solid with obstructing material. Note that all these tubules, though filled with coagulum, are relatively well preserved as compared to the proximal convolution of Plate III, thus showing the typical distribution of the lesions of ischemia in all forms of Acute Renal Failure. Original magnification of 100 X is here reduced to 40 X. 188

THE CORTICAL PORTION OF THE PROXIMAL CONVOLUTION Bowman's space is distended and the tuft compressed. Note larger afferent arteriole entering the "polkissen" and a stub of the narrower efferent. After the first coil of proximal convolution the tubule is irregularly distended with resultant patchy thinning of its wall. Original magnification of 200 X is here reduced to 80 X. 192

21 PLATE VIII (A TO C) C A The tracing shows the orientation of the three plates of a complete cortical short-looped nephron from Case D, who died in the period of transition from oliguria to diuresis. Plate VIIIA. The glomerulus is of normal configuration; the dark spot on the afferent arteriole is a collection of "myo-epithelial" cells of the juxta-glomerular apparatus. The greater part of the proximal convolution is dilated. As a result of atypical regeneration the epithelium of its wall is irregular in thickness, and redundant. For histological appearance cf. Figures 32 and 33. At a there is an incompletely healed tubulorhexic lesion. There are many desquamated epithelial cells in the lumen of the convolution shown to the left. Original magnification of 200 X is here reduced to 80 X. 200

ORIGIN OF THE PERIPHERAL COLLECTING TUBULE SYSTEM Five connecting tubules, all filled with deeply stained coagulated material, but intact, which lay beneath the capsule in the outer cortex. The cellular pattern of the collecting tubule is normal and it is not filled with coagulum. Original magnification of 200 X is here reduced to 80X. 206

29 PLATE IXB. THE SAME COLLECTING TUBULE IN MID-CORTEX Three more connecting tubules join the main tubule which, as shown by its clear cellular pattern, is intact and empty. To the lower right, a neighboring collecting tubule. 208

31 PLATE IXC. CONTINUATION OF THE Two COLLECTING TUBULES INTO THE SUBCORTICAL AREA OF HEMORRHAGE IN THE OUTER ZONE OF THE MEDULLA Below the level a, the damage to the epithelial cells is barely apparent in the loss of clarity of the nuclear pattern in the tubule to the left (cf. see Plate IXB), and is obvious in that to the right. 210

35 PLATE IXE. CONTINUATION OF THE Two COLLECTING TUBULES INCLUDING THEIR JUNCTION IN MID-MEDULLA Only the external configuration of the two tubules, now entirely necrotic, remains. After the tuning-fork junction the tubule continues, necrotic and filled with deeply stained debris. For histological appearance of similar necrotic collecting tubules, cf. Figure

37 PLATE X (A TO B). PORTION OF PROXIMAL CONVOLUTION FROM CASE 33 WHO DIED ON THE NINETEENTH DAY OF HIS ILLNESS AND IN THE TENTH DAY OF DIURESIS A PLATE XA Although the lumens of the proximal convolutions appear large in histological section (cf. Figure 40), as can be seen from the dissected specimen, this is not due to dilatation of the tubule but to the irregular regeneration of its epithelial wall (a). Original magnification of 200 X is here reduced to 80 X. 216

39 PLATE XB. THE DISTAL CONVOLUTION OF THE SAME NEPHRON A duplicate print of the glomerulus has been mounted in the position of its attachment to the tubule. The ascending limb is essentially normal. The first half of the distal convolution is irregularly dilated, the second half filled with a large solid cast-like mass which continues into the connecting tubule. 218

41 PLATE XI (A TO B). THE TERMINAL COLLECTING TUBULE AND THE DUCTS OF BELLINI FROM THE SAME CASE In the normal kidney these tubules show smooth, even contours with gradually increasing diameters. These are markedly irregular both from the presence of the large renal failure casts of Addis that intermittently distend their lumen and from the irregular hyperplastic proliferation of their epithelial cells. Original magnification of 100 X is here reduced to 40 X. 220

42 I.<.S~. /

43 PLATE XIB. THE Ducrs OF BELLINI ENTERING THE RENAL PELVIS The foot-like appendage that joins the three ducts below is a reflection of the pelvic epithelium which usually remains attached in spite of dissection. As has been observed, the tortuosity and irregularity of contour is seen to be due to the masses of debris that fill the lumens as well as to the marked hyperplasia of epithelial cells of the walls of ducts. For histological appearance, cf. Figure 41. Original magnification of 175 X is here reduced to 80 X. 222
