A case is reported of Bancroftian filariasis and acute immune complex glomerulonephritis in a 44-year-old man. Renal biopsy showed microfilariae and large numbers of eosinophils in the glomeruli (eosinophilic glomerulonephritis). The absence of other aetiological factors suggests that the glomerulonephritis may have been of filarial origin.
报告了一例44岁男性患班氏丝虫病和急性免疫复合物性肾小球肾炎的病例。肾活检显示肾小球内有微丝蚴和大量嗜酸性粒细胞(嗜酸性粒细胞性肾小球肾炎)。由于不存在其他病因,提示肾小球肾炎可能源于丝虫感染。
