Immune complexes are responsible for tissue lesions in human pathology and in experimental pathology. In this review are considered the various models in which immune complexes may be responsible for tissue lesions in experimental pathology. The methods of study are first considered. Four essential models are then described. Knowledge of these models is probably very important for better understanding of human diseases. Finally are considered the circumstances favouring the formation of immune complexes in a tissue, the affected organs and the possible pathogenic effects of these immune complexes.
