IgA nephropathy in patients with familial Mediterranean fever
Am J Nephrol.
1988.
Abstract
Two patients with a long-standing history of familial Mediterranean fever were found to have both microscopic hematuria and proteinuria during the acute attacks. Kidney biopsies from both patients revealed diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis with intense mesangial IgA and C3 deposits and no evidence of amyloidosis. To our knowledge these are the first 2 cases documenting the presence of mesangial IgA nephropathy in patients with familial Mediterranean fever.
