Abstract
The nephrotic syndrome developed in a patient with mycosis fungoides shortly after
systemic involvement by his tumor occurred. Renal biopsy examination revealed atypical
lymphocytic interstitial infiltration and changes consistent with minimal change glomerulonephropathy.
The patient's proteinuria decreased following steroid therapy. This is the first report
of an association between minimal change glomerulonephropathy and a proven T-cell
malignant lymphoma. The implications are discussed with reference to the literature.
