(Created page with "'''Staining''': Weigert (fibrin) stain '''Organ''': Kidney '''Description''': Many parts of the slide are darker, but especially the glomeruli are very dark blue, sometimes black. Some tubules are also dark. '''Diagnosis''': Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy – phase 1 '''Theory''': In phase I on DIC, the thrombotic phase, will there be microthrombus and microembolism formation in every organ. In the kidney are the glomerular capillaries especially affected...")
