title: A case of Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis associated with membranous nephropathy.
abstract: A 68-year-old woman who had a history of Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis from 1964 showed nephrotic syndrome in 1989. Renal biopsy revealed membranous nephropathy. Various suspected causes of secondary membranous nephropathy were not found. Coexistence of Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis and membranous nephropathy has rarely been reported.
