According to the literature, celiac disease is mostly associated with IgA nephropathy. Lupus nephritis and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis type of renal involvement has also been described to occur in association with celiac disease but many case reports have described patients of celiac disease presented with nephrotic or subnephrotic range proteinuria which have remained unexplained till date.
