Abstract

Abstract Nodal/paranodal IgG4-related chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) rarely involves anticontactin (CNTN1) subtype and exceptionally complicates with nephrotic syndrome. A 65-year-old man developed weakness, facial palsy, and balance impairment; after spontaneous recovery, he severely relapsed 1 month later. Electroneuromyography confirmed CIDP. Proteinorachy (462 mg/dL; N < 45), proteinuria (3.5 g/g creatine), and biopsy-proven membranous nephropathy were identified. Intravenous immunoglobulins, corticosteroids, and plasmaphereses did not allow recovery. Anti-CNTN1 immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) assay was positive. Rituximab (375 mg/m2/week, 4 weeks) provided obvious improvement. Relapsing–remitting anti–CNTN1-CIDP co-occurring with nephrotic syndrome is exceptional, and its identification is essential because efficient therapies such as rituximab are available for this severe condition.

慢性炎症性脱髓鞘性多根神经病变伴膜性肾病:一例描述和简要回顾

结/副结igg4相关的慢性炎症性脱髓鞘性多根神经病变(CIDP)很少涉及抗接触素(CNTN1)亚型，罕见并发肾病综合征。65岁男性出现虚弱、面瘫和平衡障碍;自愈后1个月严重复发。神经肌电图证实为CIDP。蛋白含量(462 mg/dL;N < 45)，蛋白尿(3.5 g/g肌酸)，活检证实的膜性肾病。静脉注射免疫球蛋白、皮质类固醇和血浆均不能恢复。抗cntn1免疫球蛋白G4 (IgG4)检测阳性。利妥昔单抗(375 mg/m2/周，4周)改善明显。复发缓解型抗cntn1 - cidp与肾病综合征共同发生是罕见的，它的识别是必不可少的，因为这种严重的疾病有有效的治疗方法，如利妥昔单抗。
