A case of fibrillary glomerulonephritis necessitating multidisciplinary care by George Nishimura, Manasvi Koppana, Richard Smith

“…DNAJB9 immunohistochemistry has recently been identified as a sensitive and specific hallmark for FGN and has not been reported in amyloidosis.1 The patient also suffered from symptoms and signs consistent with heart failure, and, therefore, echocardiography was performed, which demonstrated moderate to severely reduced left ventricular systolic function and a visually estimated ejection fraction of 35–40%. A broad range of potential diagnoses were considered in this case; amyloidosis was considered unlikely, given negative Congo-Red staining, viral screens were negative, Fabry’s screen was negative, serum ACE was normal and ANA levels were normal, suggesting limited scope for autoimmune differentials. …”
