A Case of IgA Nephropathy Associated with Hodgkin's Disease
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
The association of glomerulonephritis and malignant disease is generally regarded as one example of the broad spectrum of paraneoplastic disorders.
The incidence of gomerular lesions in Hodgkin's disease are so rare that only about 100 cases were reported. The renal pathology has been attributed most frequently to minimal change nephropathy and amyloidosis. Membranous or proliferative
lesions
may
also occur in these patients.
However, IgA nephropathy has not been reported in Hodgkin's disease so far. Now, we report a case of 59-year-old-female with Hodgkin's disease during the course of IgA nephropathy.
In this case, we propose a cause-and-effect relation-ship between Hodgkin's disease and IgA nephropathy, and emphasize that patients with IgA nephropathy be considered for the possiblity of malignancy.
