IgA nephropathy can be scored using an assessment of '''m'''esangial proliferation, '''e'''ndocapillary proliferation, glomerulo'''s'''clerosis and '''t'''ubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis (abbreviated ''MEST'').<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Coppo | first1 = R. | last2 = Cattran | first2 = D. | last3 = Roberts Ian | first3 = SD. | last4 = Troyanov | first4 = S. | last5 = Camilla | first5 = R. | last6 = Cook | first6 = T. | last7 = Feehally | first7 = J. | title = The new Oxford Clinico-Pathological Classification of IgA nephropathy. | journal = Prilozi | volume = 31 | issue = 1 | pages = 241-8 | month = Jul | year = 2010 | doi = | PMID = 20693944 }}</ref> | IgA nephropathy can be scored using an assessment of '''m'''esangial proliferation, '''e'''ndocapillary proliferation, glomerulo'''s'''clerosis and '''t'''ubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis (abbreviated ''MEST'').<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Coppo | first1 = R. | last2 = Cattran | first2 = D. | last3 = Roberts Ian | first3 = SD. | last4 = Troyanov | first4 = S. | last5 = Camilla | first5 = R. | last6 = Cook | first6 = T. | last7 = Feehally | first7 = J. | title = The new Oxford Clinico-Pathological Classification of IgA nephropathy. | journal = Prilozi | volume = 31 | issue = 1 | pages = 241-8 | month = Jul | year = 2010 | doi = | PMID = 20693944 }}</ref> | ||
===IF=== | |||
*IgA +ve -- branching pattern. | |||
===EM=== | |||
*Mesangial deposits. | |||
**These are electron dense, ergo dark on EM images. | |||
