Experimental Renal Effects of Analgesics, Rat

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals ((LABORATORY))

Abstract

The gross appearance of the kidney is normal in most studies of experimental renal papillary necrosis. In experiments where analgesics have been fed to rats for prolonged periods of up to 72 weeks, macroscopic cortical scars may be noted.
