Urine sediment microscopy. Waxy casts. Proteinuria 3.0 g/L.</p> <p>Waxy casts are dense, homogeneous, wax-candle-like fragments, clearly contoured, straight and convoluted, short and long cylindrical formations. The casts may have cracks and bay-like indentations along their contour. Wide waxy casts form due to the stasis of hyaline and granular casts in dilated distal tubules and collecting ducts of the kidneys. These casts are called terminal casts.</p>
