New Aspects of Pathophysiology and Pathomorphology of Renal Lesions in Malignant Tumors

Glomerular injuries associated with malignancy are rare and they are morphologically heterogeneous. Although the pathophysiologic interrelations between a tumor and glomerulopathy are not clear, molecular mechanisms of paraneoplastic glomerulopathies and pathologic features of renal lesions in solid tumors, lymphoproliferative and myeloproliferative disorders have been discovered over recent decades.
