An adult case of Fanconi's syndrome associated with membranous nephropathy is described. Renal biopsy specimens revealed typical features of membranous nephropathy associated with severe tubulo-interstitial changes in light microscopy, electron microscopy and immunofluorescent microscopy. The nephrotic syndrome due to membranous nephropathy was observed at the time of definite diagnosis of Fanconi's syndrome in this patient. It is suggested that renal tubular injuries in some patients with membranous nephropathy might be an important factor in the pathogenesis and/or development of Fanconi's syndrome.
