C1q Nephropathy in a Patient of Neurofibromatosis Type 1: A Rare Case Report

C1q nephropathy is a rare glomerular disease defined by the presence of characteristic mesangial dominant or codominant C1q deposition on immunofluorescence microscopy. Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) is an autosomal dominant syndrome caused by a mutation of a gene located on chromosomal segment 17q...

Descripción
Sumario:C1q nephropathy is a rare glomerular disease defined by the presence of characteristic mesangial dominant or codominant C1q deposition on immunofluorescence microscopy. Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) is an autosomal dominant syndrome caused by a mutation of a gene located on chromosomal segment 17q11.2. Nephrotic syndrome has rarely been reported in patients of NF-1, and the relation of NF-1 with nephrotic syndrome is unclear. Here, we present a rare case of C1q nephropathy in a patient of NF-1.
