Abstract
The association of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and severe proteinuria is uncommon. The majority of such patients had already been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and present overlapping symptoms of these two diseases.

Kidney biopsy revealed features of chronic thrombotic microangiopathy and membranous glomerulonephritis.
