In 35 biopsy specimens taken from 21 patients with membranous glomerulonephritis (mGN) the ultrastructure of the glomeruli was investigated with special regards to the degradation of the immune complexes. Electron microscopy allows the most comprehensive assessment of the manifold basement membrane changes. This is of high value for the practical diagnosis.
