Chronic Interstitial Nephritis

The kidneys of 100 of 2,338 rabbits (4.3%) slaughtered for human consumption had focal cortical depressions. Histologically, the lesions in these kidneys consisted of focal granulomatous nephritis to chronic interstitial nephritis with scarring. Nosema cuniculi was demonstrated microscopically in 35 (35%) of the grossly affected kidneys. The number of organisms decreased as the lesions became older.

A morphologic study of 103 dogs, including two with renal amyloidosis, showed that different types of diffuse glomerulonephritis are correlated with different age groups. Membranous and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis were more common in middle-aged and older animals, whereas mesangial lesions were found predominantly in younger dogs and considered to be early glomerular changes. Glomerulonephritis largely occurred independently of interstitial nephritis. The incidence of interstitial lesions was 71%. Chronic interstitial nephritis was rare in dogs under 1 year old. Glomerulonephritis did not seem to induce interstitial nephritis. Glomerulonephritis occurred not only in kidneys with severe interstitial damage, but also in those with slight damage. This indicated that glomerulonephritis occurred independently of interstitial nephritis. In end-stage kidneys with severe fibrosis, mesangial changes seemed to predominate.
