RESUMO
Membranous glomerulonephritis and the nephrotic syndrome concurrent with the Miller-Fisher variant of the Landry-Guillain-Barré-Strohl syndrome (LGBS), acute post-infective polyneuritis, is reported in a 49-year-old man. The onset of heavy proteinuria coincided with the development of the neurological disturbance. While immunosuppressive therapy appeared to hasten improvement in the neurological disease, no such improvement occurred in the glomerulopathy.
