Three types of renal cortical damage were found in rats 2 mth after papillary necrosis had been induced by ethylenimine: (1) Circumscribed areas of interstitial nephritis affecting either deep or superficial nephrons. (2) Wedge-shaped or conical scars, extending from capsule to inner medulla. (3) Widespread tubular dilatation and cyst formation with a diffuse increase in interstitial tissue, usually associated with dense fibrous repair of the papillary remnant. The extent and character of the cortical changes did not appear to be determined by the severity of the papillary necrosis, and even the more severe cortical lesions were not accompanied by any major reduction in kidney size. Although these chronic experimental cortical lesions are the products of a less complex and less protracted natural history than end stage cortical damage in analgesic nephropathy, some of the factors influencing their evolution, such as infection, may also determine the natural history of the clinical lesion.
