Table 2.

C4d staining patterns in different renal anatomic compartments.

Glomeruli Arteriole PTC TBM
Negative 6 (1.8%) 223 (68.6%) 215 (66.2%) 183 (56.3%)
Minimal 37 (11.4%) 78 (24%) 90 (27.7%) 116 (35.7%)
Focal 88 (27.1%) 15 (4.6%) 13 (4.0%) 21 (6.5%)
Diffuse 194 (59.7%) 9 (2.8%) 7 (2.2%) 5 (1.5%)

PTC, peritubular capillary; TBM, tubular basement membrane; Minimal, Focal and Diffuse represent the distribution of the C4d staining <10%, 10-50% and >50% respectively for Arteriole, PTC and TBM. Minimal, Focal and Diffuse represent the semi-quantitative grade (1-3) of the glomerular C4d staining for Glomeruli.
