    Glomerular diseases are rarely linked to Hodgkin's disease but frequently associated with solid tumors, especially in older patients with membranous nephropathy. Specific nephropathies correlate with distinct cancers, suggesting immune complex involvement.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Oncology
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Glomerular diseases can be associated with various malignancies.
    • The incidence and specific associations vary depending on the type of glomerulopathy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the association between glomerular diseases and malignancies.
    • To highlight specific patterns of glomerulopathy-cancer correlations.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of studies examining the co-occurrence of glomerular diseases and cancer.
    • Analysis of reported incidences and specific associations.

    Main Results:

    • Low incidence of Hodgkin's disease in glomerulopathy patients.
    • Solid tumor incidence in glomerulopathy patients ranges from 3-13% (mean 7%), up to 22% in patients >60 with membranous nephropathy.

  • Membranous nephropathy is most frequently linked to solid tumors; minimal change nephropathy with Hodgkin's disease; and membrano-proliferative glomerulopathy with chronic lymphatic leukemia.

    • Conclusions:

    • Hodgkin's disease-associated glomerulopathy may involve T-lymphocyte dysfunction.
    • Other glomerulopathies might be immune complex-mediated, involving tumor antigens.
    • Understanding these associations is crucial for patient management and diagnosis.
