ABSTRACT
Podocyte infolding glomerulopathy (PIG) is a pathologic type of podocyte glomerulopathy reported recently. The characteristic is that the ultrastructure related to podocytes, such as microspheres and microtubules, are folded into the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) under electron microscope. At present, there are few reports about this disease at home and abroad, and most of them are concentrated in Japan. The clinical characteristics and pathogenesis of PIG are still unclear. In this paper, we report a case of clinical manifestations of nephrotic syndrome, renal biopsy indicated PIG, after the treatment of glucocorticoid, hydroxychloroquine and tacrolimus, the patient's clinical symptoms were relieved and urinary protein decreased.
