Abstract
Abstract Lipoprotein glomerulopathy is a rare entity that predominantly affects the Asian population, mainly the Japanese and Chinese. Lipoprotein glomerulopathy is clinically characterized by proteinuria and progression to renal failure and is caused by glomerular lipoprotein thrombi formation in association with increased levels of serum apolipoprotein E. The disease has a male predominance and can affect virtually any age group. We describe the third reported case, to our knowledge, of lipoprotein glomerulopathy to affect a white patient.
