Assumpta Serra, MD, Servicio de Nefrologia, Hospital ‘Germans Trias i Pujol’, Carretera del Canyet s/n, E-08916 Badalona (Spain) Sir, Urinary red blood cell morphology has been reported to be useful in discriminating renal from nonrenal causes of hematuria. In renal disease, dysmorphic blood cells are detected in urine, whereas in nonrenal hematuria the morphology is normal [1,2]. The estimated...

متن کاملUrinary erythrocyte morphology in acute glomerulonephritis
Recent reports emphasise the importance of examining the morphological features of erythrocytes in urine as an aid to determining their origin (glomerular or non-glomerular).'3 Finding pronounced distortion of the majority of the erythrocytes favours a glomerular origin and might be especially helpful for diagnosing glomerulonephritis in patients presenting without erythrocyte casts or proteinu...

متن کاملIron alters red blood cell morphology.
Under physiologic conditions a small percentage ( 3%) of red blood cells (RBCs) are irreversibly trapped within the fibrin clot mesh. By contrast, in prothrombotic states such as diabetes mellitus, significantly more RBCs are tightly bound to fibrin fibers. Such interactions affect clot properties, making it more resistant to fibrinolytic degradation. This phenomenon may explain thrombolytic re...
