A paediatric case of lipoprotein glomerulopathy, a new kidney disease characterized by glomerular lipoprotein thrombi, is reported. The patient had massive proteinuria from the age of 8 years, when the nephrotic syndrome was first detected. This was resistant to conventional treatment for more than 10 years. During the course of the disease, the hyperlipidaemia characteristic of hyper-pre-beta-lipoproteinaemia and elevation of apoprotein E persisted, and renal function gradually deteriorated. The renal histopathological findings from four biopsies were essentially the same, with storage of beta-lipoprotein in dilated, balloon-like glomerular capillary lumina. However, the number of glomeruli showing global sclerosis increased and tubulo-interstitial changes progressed in parallel with the gradual clinical deterioration. As in other cases reported in Japan some familial involvement has been noted.
