Overview
Historical Prespective
- The term membranous glomerulonephritis was used first by Bell in 1946 to describe a category of glomerular renal disease classified within the spectrum of Ellis type II glomerulonephritis. This category also included lipoid nephrosis, lobular glomerulonephritis, and chronic glomerulonephritis. [1]
- In 1957, David Jones, a renal pathologist from Syracuse University in New York, separated membranous glomerulonephritis as a distinct morphologic entity.
- . Jones fully illustrated the special features of this lesion such as lobular glomerulonephritis (now known as membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis), lipoid nephrosis (now known as minimal change disease), and chronic glomerulonephritis (now known as focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis).
- The thickening of the capillary wall and alteration in basement membrane structure, so characteristic of the membranous lesion, were described.
- The electron-dense subepithelial location were identified by Movat and McGregor in 1959 using electron microscopic methods applied to renal biopsy specimens in 1957.
- Mellors in 1957 had identified the third component of the unique lesion of membranous glomerulonephritis; namely, the presence of immunoglobulin in the deposits, using the immunofluorescence technique.
- Thus, over the span of just 2 years, the triad of essential features of membranous glomerulonephritis were described.
- These are still the fundamental features used today to identify membranous glomerulonephritis, now called Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
