Abstract

Paraneoplastic nephrotic syndrome can be diagnosed from its clinical and immunological features. The development of several types of glomerular injury in patients with cancer have been recognized, and are considered as paraneoplastic syndrome. Most prominent are the occurrence of membranous glomerulonephritis in patients with carcinomas. We report a case of a 60-year-old-man with small cell lung cancer presenting as nephrotic syndrome. A renal biopsy revealed membranous glomerulonephritis. Six lots of chemotherapy were administered, which led to a complete tumor response with total resolution of the nephrotic syndrome following treatment.

저자들은 소세포폐암과 막성신증이 동시에 발견된 60세 남자 환자에서 수술 및 전신항암치료 후 폐암의 완전관해와 더불어 단백뇨가 소실되었던 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
