Isolated renal sarcoidosis and concurrent secondary membranous nephropathy: a case report

Our case highlights that an elevated angiotensin converting enzyme level can predate the development of an overt renal sarcoidosis. It also shows that findings of a secondary membranous nephropathy can sometimes be seen in the absence of overt proteinuria in sarcoidosis involving the kidneys.

Abstract

Our case highlights that an elevated angiotensin converting enzyme level can predate the development of an overt renal sarcoidosis. It also shows that findings of a secondary membranous nephropathy can sometimes be seen in the absence of overt proteinuria in sarcoidosis involving the kidneys.
