Title: [Extramembranous glomerulonephritis following hepatitis-B. Simultaneous disappearance of serum virus antigen and glomerular lesions (author's transl)]. Author: Luciani JC, Lemaire JM, Bascoul S, Baldet P, Fourcade J, Barjon P. Journal: Nouv Presse Med; 1980 Sep 13; 9(32):2239-40. PubMed ID: 7422518. Abstract: A 24-year old female patient developed extramembranous glomerulonephritis 8 months after acute hepatitis-B with virus antigen persisting in the serum. Two years later, the glomerular lesions were found to be clinically and histologically cured, with parallel disappearance of the antigen from the serum. Although the presence of HBsAg in the glomeruli could not be demonstrated, it is likely from the sequence of events that hepatitis-B virus was responsible for the renal disease.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
