Abstract

Introduction: Kaposi sarcoma and membranous Glomerulonephritis (MGN) is a rare coincidence that has been reported only in one case. Here, we report a case of MGN in relation to Kaposi sarcoma.Case Report: A 42-year old man referred to our hospital due to severe edema and purple papuleson abdominal skin. Ten months before admission, he had renal biopsy with the report of stage 2 MGN with mesangial proliferation. There were no sign of secondary MGN after complete workup on his first hospital admission. Six months later, patient received Prednisolone (60 mg) and Cyclosporine (300 mg) daily due to rise in serum creatinine and proteinuria. Skin lesions were appeared two months after immunosuppressive therapy. There were erythematous plaques on the skin of abdomen and legs that turned to dark papules gradually. He had 1500 mg/dL proteinuria with hypoalbuminemia andserum creatinine 1.8 mg/dL. Skin biopsy showed kaposi sarcoma. Immunosuppressive therapy stopped. There were not any visceral involvements.Skin lesions were spread and became infected. The patient received 6 sessions of chemotherapy with Paclitaxel (Taxol). Four months after chemotherapy he had no complaints. Serum creatinine was 1.1 mg/dL.Conclusions: Although secondary MGN due to malignancies is well established in literature but kaposi sarcoma in a patient with MGN is rare coincidence.
