ABSTRACT
SARS-CoV-2 infections can induce kidney injury and glomerulopathy, with the most common pathology findings being acute tubular injury and collapsing glomerulopathy.Here we describe a rare case of membranous nephropathy in a man in his late 70s presented with nephrotic syndrome and rapidly progressive kidney dysfunction 1 month after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies were positive. He was treated with rituximab, with proteinuria control. We review the cases reported in the literature.
