    Kidney biopsy specimen shows pathological changes of thrombotic microangiopathy. (A) Glomerular capillary microaneurysm (double arrow), mesangiolysis, and segmental capillary wall double contouring (single arrow) (Jones stain; original magnification ×400). (B) Subendothelial widening (arrow) and mesangial-capillary interpositioning (electron microscopy; original magnification ×2,500). (C) Glomerular endothelial cell swelling (arrows) (Jones stain; original magnification ×600). (D) Glomerular capillary fibrin-platelet thrombus (arrow) (Hematoxylin-Phloxin-Saffron stain; original magnification ×600).
