Abstract
We report a 7-year-old girl who presented with membranous glomerulonephritis and steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome in association with a benign ovarian tumour. Surgical excision of the tumor led to complete disappearance of the proteinuria within 2 weeks. Tumour-associated membranous nephropathy in children is rare, as a review of the literature shows.Entities:
