Microscopic hematuria is a medical condition in which urine contains small amounts of blood. Blood quantity is too low to change the color of the urine otherwise, it is known as frank hematuria .

Orphan date October 2008 March hemoglobinuria , also known as march hematuria , occurs when blood is seen in the urine after strenuous exercise, particularly affecting the feet such as running on a hard road or Kendo and hands e.g. Conga drumming . The word march is in reference to the condition arising in soldiers who have been marching for long periods. The repetitive nature of these types of activities cause mechanical trauma to the red blood cells causing hemolysis . Free haemoglobin released from lysed red blood cells is filtered into the urine. Defects in red blood cell membrane proteins have been identified in some of these patients. ref cite journal author Banga JP, Pinder JC, Gratzer WB, Linch DC, Huehns ER title An erythrocyte membrane protein anomaly in march haemoglobinuria journal Lancet volume 2 issue 8151 pages 1048 9 year 1979 month November pmid 91785 ref .

Diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis is a type of glomerulonephritis that is the most serious form of renal lesions in SLE and is also the most common, occurring in 35 to 60 of patients. Most of the glomeruli show endothelial and mesangial cell growth proliferation affecting the entire glomerulus , leading to diffuse hypercellularity of the glomeruli , producing in some cases epithelial crescents that fill Bowman s space . When extensive, immune complexes create an overall thickening of the capillary wall , resembling rigid wire loops on routine light microscopy . Electron microscopy reveals electron dense subendothelial immune complexes between endothelium and basement membrane . Immune complexes can be visualized by staining with fluorescent antibodies directed against immunoglobulins or Complement system complement , resulting in a granular fluorescent staining pattern. In due course, glomerular injury gives rise to scarring glomerulosclerosis .

Consequent ischemia will produce tubular atrophy , interstitial fibrosis , glomerular alterations smaller glomeruli with different degrees of hyalinization from mild to sclerosis of glomeruli and periglomerular fibrosis.
