Part Description

LP16859-8   Erythrocyte casts
The presence of red blood cells within the cast is always pathologic, and strongly indicates glomerular damage, which can occur in glomerulonephritis from various causes or vasculitis, including Wegener's granulomatosis, systemic lupus erythematosis, post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis or Goodpasture's syndrome. They can also be associated with renal infarction and subacute bacterial endocarditis. They appear yellowish-brown, are generally cylindrical with sometimes ragged edges. Because they are fragile, tests must be done on fresh samples. Erythrocyte casts are usually associated with nephritic syndromes.
