Abstract
We report the first case of membranous lupus nephritis occurring in a child with congenital AIDS. Hypocomplementemia, elevated titers of anti-nuclear antibody and antibody to double-stranded DNA supported the diagnosis of associated systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The pathogenetic implications of this coexistence of AIDS and SLE are discussed.Entities:
