Abstract
Numerous cilia were found in the proximal convoluted tubules from a case of crescentic glomerulonephritis. The cilia exhibited the 9 + 2 pattern of organization characteristic of motile cilia. Microvilli were scanty or absent in heavily ciliated cells. The significance of renal cilia is discussed.Keywords
