If the kidney biopsy is done in a bronchogenic carcinoma patient who presents as a case of nephrotic syndrome, which lesions will be seen most likely?
If a nephrotic syndrome presents in an adult patient, underlying malignancy should be considered. It may be found in 10- 22% of cases, being more prevalent in the older age group. Though both MGN and MPGN can be associated with lung malignancy, on a comparative basis the more commonly seen is MGN and is hence the answer in the question.
Membranous GN
Focal proliferative GN
Minimal change disease
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
Nephrotic and Nephritic syndrome
