You see nothing on LM. What glomerular pathology could still be present
1) Minimal change disease
- would see podocyte effacement on EM

2) Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
- Just didn't get an affected glomerulus
Most common glomerular pathology in HIV patients
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
