Thin kidney cortex

Double renal cortex is a thinning of the cortex caused by a series of lesions caused by chronic glomerulonephritis. Chronic glomerulonephritis is the end stage of the development of different types of glomerulonephritis. The disease is characterized by a large number of glomerular changes and sclerosis, also known as chronic sclerosing glomerulonephritis. Macroscopically, the kidneys were reduced in volume and the surface was diffusely fine-grained. The cut cortex became thinner, and the boundaries of the cortex and medulla were unclear. Increased fat around the pelvis. The gross pathology of chronic nephritis is called secondary granular constricted kidney.
