Diagnosis of monoclonal immunotactoid glomerulopathy with positive λ chain by immunoelectron microscopy
Abstract We report the case of a 73-year-old-man who developed immunotactoid glomerulopathy (ITG). ITG is a rare disease characterized by proliferative glomerulonephritis and capillary wall deposits with a 10–60 nm diameter microtubular substructure. In monoclonal ITG, immunofluorescence analysis typically exhibits IgG with light chain restriction. Recent reviews recommend distinguishing monoclonal ITG from polyclonal ITG because monoclonal ITG is associated with a higher incidence of hematological disorders and better responsiveness to clone-directed therapy and renal prognosis. In our case, IgG, IgA, and IgM were negative by routine immunofluorescence; however, immunoelectron microscopy revealed positive λ chain. At 6 months after renal biopsy, the IgG λ chain was detected in the serum and urine, reflecting possible monoclonality. Therefore, it is useful to perform immunoelectron microscopy and follow-up with serum and urine protein electrophoresis and immunofixation to diagnose monoclonal ITG, even when routine immunofluorescence shows negative or nonspecific findings..
