title: Malign peritoneal mesothelioma with nephrotic syndrome.
abstract: Nephrotic syndrome may occur in malignancies like Hodgkin Disease and other solid tumors due to glomerulonephritis, amyloidosis or other causes. However, it is rare in peritoneal mesothelioma. We report a 42-year old female patient with peritoneal mesothelioma and nephrotic syndrome together with a review of literature (Tab. 1, Fig. 3, Ref. 7).
