Successful treatment of a patient with nephrotic syndrome associated with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
2000
We report the case of a 62-year-old man with nephrotic syndrome associated with stage B chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Kappa Bence Jones proteinuria and the glomerular deposition of kappa-light chain were observed. Although treatment with cyclophosphamide and prednisolone tended to reduce the level of proteinuria, the administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, enalapril, resulted in complete remission of nephrotic syndrome.(Internal Medicine 39: 256-259, 2000)
