Q201 marks
Answer
Diffuse proliferative and exudative glomerulonephritis, with hypercellular glomeruli due to infiltration by neutrophils and proliferation of endothelial and mesangial cells; subepithelial “hump-shaped” electron-dense immune complex deposits on electron microscopy; and granular (“lumpy-bumpy”) deposits of IgG and C3 along the glomerular basement membrane on immunofluorescence.
