Abstract
A patient with mycosis fungoides developed a nephrotic syndrome. Renal biopsy revealed deposits of a highly organized fibrillar material which did not stain with the typical amyloid stains; this picture was consistent with the diagnosis of non-amyloidotic fibrillary glomerulopathy or immunotactoid glomerulopathy. We believe this is the first case reported of immunotactoid glomerulopathy associated with mycosis fungoides. Possible pathogenetic implications are discussed with reference to previous publications.
