Results: The age of patients ranged from 27-50 years with female predominance. There is family history of renal disease, haematuria, proteinuria and hypertension in two patients. One patient terminated in end stage renal disease. Light microscopy showed normal glomerular and tubulointerstitial compartment. Immunofluorescence studies were negative. EM confirmed the clinicopathological diagnosis showing diffuse attenuation of the glomerular basement membrane.
