pubmed:abstractText |
Sudden onset of nephrotic syndrome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation is rare and has been associated mostly with membranous glomerulonephritis related to chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). We report a case of nephrotic syndrome and rapidly progressive renal failure occurring in a young woman 3 years after allogeneic stem cell transplantation from her HLA-identical brother. In the renal biopsy, a diffuse mononuclear cell infiltrate was observed. Furthermore, histological analysis, immunofluorescence, and electron microscopy of the kidney specimen defined the diagnosis as minimal change disease, a T-cell-mediated glomerulopathy associated with lymphoproliferative disorders, but that has never been described as an isolated manifestation of cGVHD.
