    Transcript

    00:00 So let's wrap up this portion of the video series.

    00:03 Casts of all types in urine sediment are an indicator of renal involvement.

    00:08 Urinary casts may be made up of white blood cells, red blood cells, renal cells, or other types of cells.

    00:16 The predominant cellular elements determine the type or the name of the cast.

    00:21 The type of cast found in the urine may give us clues as to which disorder is affecting the kidney.

    00:27 Thank you for watching this video series with us.
