[HTML][HTML] Very early recurrence of anti-phospholipase A2 receptor-positive membranous nephropathy after transplantation
Membranous nephropathy is a common cause of adult nephrotic syndrome, with recent
evidence suggesting that 70% of idiopathic disease is associated with anti-Phospholipase A
2 receptor autoantibodies. We describe a 63-year-old man with membranous nephropathy
who underwent a kidney transplant and developed recurrent membranous nephropathy with
fine granular co-localization of Phospholipase A 2 receptor and IgG evident on transplant
biopsy on day 6 and elevated circulating levels of serum anti-Phospholipase A 2 receptor …
