Abstract
We describe a patient with Graves' disease in whom marked proteinuria, microhematuria and hypoalbuminemia were associated. Renal biopsy demonstrated electrondense deposits in the capillary basement membrane, a finding consistent with immune complex glomerulonephritis. Indirect immunofluorescent examination with rabbit antihuman thyroglobulin indicated that these electron-dense deposits were thyroid antigen-mediated immune complexes.Entities:
