Twelve miniature pigs were inoculated with an attenuated African swine fever virus to study glomerular involvement in surviving pigs. In acute phase. kidneys were severely affected and displayed a glomerular capillary thrombosis with fibrin deposition in vascular lumen, detected by immunofluorescence. Fibrin-positive deposits were progressively cleared between one to three months after infection in surviving pigs. The histological picture in kidneys of surviving pigs, up to one post-infection year, showed a focal and segmental glomerulonephritis with hyalinosis, and IgM and C3 deposition was detected by immunofluorescence. Its pathogeny as an evolutive stage of acute glomerular injury is pointed out.
