What is the Pathology of Hypercalcemia Induced Tubulointerstitial Disease

The pathology of hypercalcemia induced tubulointerstitial disease is:

-Etiology: The cause of hypercalcemia induced tubulointerstitial disease is increased calcium levels, 

-Genes involved: Unknown. 

-Pathogenesis: The sequence of events that lead to hypercalcemia induced tubulointerstitial disease is that too much calcium in the kidneys cause damage to the tubulointerstitial layers leading to nephropathy.

-Morphology: Not applicable. 

-Histology: The histology associated with hypercalcemia induced tubulointerstitial disease shows eosinophilic cellular infiltration, fibrosis and atrophy.inflammatory infiltrate with no glomerular changes.
