RESUMO
Membranous glomerulonephropathy is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults and idiopathic autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura is autoimmune disease caused by autoantibody to platelet membrane glycoprotein. Although there are some pathologic similarity between two diseases that 'membrane attack complex' play a role in pathologic process, but only 3 cases worldwide are reported about membranous glomerulonephropathy associated with idiopathic autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura. So we report a case of sixty eight years of woman who had symptoms of generalized edema, foamy urine, anorexia and thrombocytopenia on admission and developed more severe symptomatic thrombocytopenia there after. She was diagnosed membranous glomeulonephropathy on renal biopsy and also diagnosed idiopathic autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpra on bone marrow biopsy and on the basis of exclusion.
