  • Title: Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and Guillain-Barre syndrome associated with Campylobacter enteritis.
    Author: Lim A, Lydia A, Rim H, Dowling J, Kerr P.
    Journal: Intern Med J; 2007 Oct; 37(10):724-8. PubMed ID: 17894770.
    Abstract:
    Previous reports have noted an association between membranous nephropathy and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis with Guillain-Barre syndrome. We report a case of Campylobacter enteritis, which was complicated by both focal segmental glomerulosclerosis of the collapsing variety and Guillain-Barre syndrome, and propose that Campylobacter may be the common link between the glomerular disease and Guillain-Barre syndrome. We also briefly review previous reports of kidney disease associated with Campylobacter infection.
