Abstract EN
Filarial glomerular disease has been attributed to circulating immune complex deposition.
We report here a rare manifestation of filarial nephropathy with microfilariae documented in glomerular capillaries in addition to immune complex glomerulonephritis, thus suggesting that direct toxicity may also contribute to the pathogenesis of this entity.
