Medical - Medical (general) / Anatom�a patol�gica - Microscop�a renal
Spanish term or phrase: acúmulos
Microscopía de una pieza de nefrectomía:
Se observa parénquima renal con infiltración mononuclear en acúmulos e intensa congestión vascular.

English translation:patchy infiltration
Explanation:
In the sense that the mononuclear cells were not uniformly distributed, but with a patchy pattern.

"Deposits" would have been correct in case of a substance (e.g. amyloid) but not referring to cells.

See e.g.
"Renal biopsy revealed noncaseating granulomatous infiltration of arterial and arteriolar walls, a patchy mononuclear cell interstitial infiltrate"
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&d...

"Renal biopsy specimens showed a patchy dense interstitial infiltration of lymphocytes, monocytes and..."
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&d...

"and patchy interstitial infiltration and interstitial fibrosis with increased interstitial deposition of type IV collagen..."
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&d...
