Recurrent crescentic membranous nephropathy in two successive renal transplants: association with choroidal effusions and retinal detachment

P Lazowski et al. Am J Nephrol. 1998.

Abstract

We report the case of a 50-year-old man in whom crescentic membranous nephropathy recurred in two successive renal transplants leading rapidly to renal failure. Deterioration of renal function was associated with choroidal effusions and retinal detachments. Multiple serologic tests were negative. High-dose steroids, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine, plasmapheresis and OKT3 failed to arrest the deterioration of renal function.
