H K Yap, K T Woo, P P Yeo, G S Chiang, M Singh, C H Lim.   

Abstract

A patient with lymphatic filariasis, developing the nephrotic syndrome is reported. Renal biopsy showed a diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis with C3 deposition in the glomeruli. Glomerulonephritis associated with filariasis has been reported previously, however definite identification of filarial antigen in glomerular deposits or of specific antibodies in kidney eluates is still awaiting.
