D Hariparsad, R Ramsaroop, Y K Seedat, P L Patel.   

Abstract

Although the clinical and biochemical features of renal involvement in Legionnaires' disease have been well described, only a few case reports detailed the histological changes. A patient with Legionnaires' disease who developed acute renal failure is described; a biopsy specimen revealed mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. The renal morphological changes in Legionnaires' disease are reviewed.
