  • Title: Spontaneous remission of immunotactoid glomerulopathy.
    Author: Rood IM, Lieverse LG, Steenbergen EJ, Wetzels JF, Deegens JK.
    Journal: Neth J Med; 2011; 69(7):341-4. PubMed ID: 21934180.
    Abstract:
    Immunotactoid glomerulopathy (ITG ) is a rare cause of nephrotic syndrome, occurring in approximately 0.1% of native kidney biopsies. We describe a 43-year-old woman who presented with a nephrotic syndrome. Renal biopsy revealed a membranous pattern of glomerular injury. In electron microscopy the subepithelial deposits were comprised of 40 nm wide tubular structures, confirming ITG . During follow-up the patient developed a remission of proteinuria with only supportive treatment.
