It typically manifests as a syndromic condition, presenting with macrocytic thrombocytopenia, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), chronic glomerulopathy, elevated liver enzymes, and early-onset bilateral cataracts. In accordance with CARE guidelines, we present a case report of a father and daughter with renal-predominant MYH9-RD due to a recently described missense variant affecting the head domain of non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIA.</p><p><strong>Case presentations: </strong>Patient 1 was an 18-year-old woman with childhood proteinuria who presented with severely advanced kidney failure. Dialysis was initiated as a bridge to a living unrelated renal transplant (LURT). Family history was notable for proteinuric kidney disease in her father (patient 2). Eight years later, genetic testing identified a likely pathogenic missense variant in the head domain of the <i>MYH9</i> gene (c.1271G>A, p.R424Q). A predictive structural model was obtained via AlphaFold Protein Structure Database, in which the mutation interrupts hydrogen bonding and π-cation interactions, likely leading to protein misfolding. Subsequent clinical screening revealed persistent mild thrombocytopenia and elevated liver enzymes, without cataracts or SNHL. Patient 2 was a 53-year-old man with childhood proteinuria who eventually presented with stage 4 chronic kidney disease and soon after underwent LURT. After patient 1's genetic diagnosis, he was confirmed to have the same mutation by genetic testing. Subsequent screening revealed mild thrombocytopenia and elevated liver enzymes with hepatic steatosis progressing to cirrhosis, without cataracts or SNHL.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The finding of this <i>MYH9</i> p.R424Q variant confirmed a diagnosis of MYH9-RD in these patients. <i>MYH9</i> variants affecting the head domain typically result in severe thrombocytopenia.

Failure to recognize a second lesion after a first has been identified can result from overintense focus on the first lesion, subtlety of the second lesion, unusual situations where the second lesion involves the absence rather than presence of something, instances where the first lesion obscures the second, and disease pairs where the findings for the second are a subset of those for first.</p><p><strong>Key messages: </strong>Detection and understanding of multiple pathological processes in a biopsy and avoiding pitfalls in their analysis requires the use of all available diagnostic modalities and thorough examination of all tissue received.

Recent proteomic data, pattern-based classification, and a better understanding of various glomerular renal diseases have underscored the importance of immunohistology as an integral part of the diagnostic evaluation of renal biopsies. These include immunofluorescence on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded renal tissue (IF-P), IgG subclass staining, typing of amyloid, and other organized deposits, classification of membranous nephropathy, etc.</p><p><strong>Summary: </strong>We describe the recent immunohistological markers on immunofluorescence (IF) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) on fresh and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded renal native biopsies for proper evaluation and classification of glomerular diseases. The article also provides information on the diagnostic utility, interpretation, and established antibody clones described in the literature for various glomerular diseases. The indications of IF-P in renal biopsies are also outlined.</p><p><strong>Key messages: </strong>Immunohistology has become integral to diagnosing and classifying various glomerular renal diseases.
