متن کاملFundus changes in mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis type II: vitreous fluorophotometry.

Patients with MCGN type II were examined by vitreous fluorophotometry which reveals that there is a breakdown of the blood retinal barrier (BRB) in those patients with the typical fundus lesions. The function of this barrier was ca...
