Membranous Glomerulonephritis Associated With Ulcerative Colitis

Abstract

Glomerulonephritis is reported as a rare extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease. We report a case of a 69-year-old woman who suffered from membranous glomerulonephritis, 3 years after diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome. She was admitted because of acute kidney failure, bloody diarrhea, and gastrointestinal symptoms. Further evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of ulcerative colitis.
