Abstract
Two rare features of minimal change glomerulonephritis occurring together in an adult patient are described. A 70-year-old man presented with acute renal failure and the nephrotic syndrome. Investigation revealed minimal change glomerulonephritis and non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Anti-lymphoma treatment reversed both the renal failure and the nephrotic syndrome. Minimal change glomerulonephritis, as a cause of acute renal failure and as a manifestation of malignancy, is briefly reviewed.
