Treatment of HIV-Associated Lupus-like Membranous Nephropathy with Tacrolimus : A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Renal complications of HIV infection are common and histologically diverse. Besides HIV-associated nephropathy, which is the most well-defined glomerular disorder, immune-complex-mediated glomerulonephritis (HIVICK) is also encountered in the setting of HIV infection and may occasionally present with "lupus-like" features by light microscopy and immunofluorescence. Management of HIVICK remains controversial and mainly focuses on HIV viremia suppression with combined antiretroviral therapy. Immunosuppressive therapy may be used in order to mitigate the renal inflammation induced by the immune complex deposition. Data regarding the use of immunosuppressants in HIVICK are very limited, mostly including corticosteroids and mycophenolate acid analogues. Herein, we present the case of a 40-year-old HIV-infected Caucasian man with nephrotic syndrome, renal impairment, and a "lupus-like" membranous pattern in the kidney biopsy, who achieved a partial response of his proteinuria with a tacrolimus-based regimen in combination with antiretroviral therapy.
