Coexistence of Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Glomerulonephritis and Membranous Nephropathy in a Female Patient with Preserved Renal Function.
In conclusion, coexisting anti-GBM glomerulonephritis and MN can have preserved renal function. IgG subclass of deposited anti-GBM antibody may be associated with the severity of anti-GBM glomerulonephritis. In addition, in the case of nephrotic syndrome with hematuria, we should consider the possibility of coexisting anti-GBM glomerulonephritis and MN.
