Abstract
We describe four patients with seropositive rheumatoid arthritis who developed proteinuria and microscopic haematuria. Renal biopsy demonstrated a mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis with mesangial deposits of IgA. These data suggest a possible causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis and IgA nephropathy.Entities:
